    Slow WOT?

    About one hour ago I panicked: I opened my Mozilla FF and WOT circle was not in the Taskbar. I needed to open *sys file and went to the web to find an appropriate program. Google found a few "free" sites, yet without WOT ratings I did not want to go there. So, I surfed only familiar sites. Then I noticed WOT icon in the Taskbar. I estimate that at least half-hour passed before it appeared. I thought that if the Taskbar opens, it's fully functional.
    Is it my PC, normal WOT behavior or ...what?

    Re: Slow WOT?

    Sounds strange. If the WOT button isn't in your toolbar, the add-on is probably not enabled in Firefox. I have no idea why it would appear half an hour later though unless you restarted the browser or enabled the add-on.

      I've just had a similar problem. I was doing a google search, everything appeared fine, and I even had the WOT Safe Search. The WOT circles, of course, were there. I then did an image search with the same keyword, starting it from the Google Toolbar (an old version that doesn't collect toot much data) and the circles were gone. I tried again and they still were missing. I tried using the search button that was directly on the Google images result page, and still they were missing. Only after I switched between Web search and Image search, they appeared again.

      I just retried and found out that apparently any image search that is done from the Google Toolbar won't have the circles - for me at least.

        Can you post a link to an image search results page where there aren't ratings? I'm guessing the URL differs from a normal image search and therefore, doesn't match the search rule.

          Hi,

          sorry for the late reply.

          I don't remember the keyword now, but it should work with any so I just tried "wot".

          I'm not too sure what kind of information all the GET parameters contain, so I sent the links to you privately.
