Extensions are for chumps, plus it doesn't apply to the 65% to 95% of the people using your site who use IE. Real men write full applications: http://www.webdesignforums.net/wdf_notifs_about.php . Course that limits it to Windows because it's written in C#, but that's a near-constant 90% of the user base.
Your making me want to cry here Filburt! Its not fair to tease us those of us who don't know C# like this!
Same in here when i saw the note The WDF Notifier is a unique, simple, and beneficial application to Web Design Forums.net only. Sorry, but it is not available or for sale for other web sites. i felt terribly sorry. We all know sharing is important :P
The application is actually extremely simple. It's all the server-side stuff that's more important. The architecture lets me add new notification types and messages without ever upgrading the client.

Well I guess I'm okay with my firefox extension then. :P :cheeky:

Go-go ubiquitous data formats.
Is the server side stuff written in php or c# and are you using native vb features? I imagine you had to add something for the PM notification.
The server-side is all PHP with some commonly installed PHP extensions (the server runs Linux so C# would be out anyway). Everything is done with custom scripts and hooks. Not one file on my site has been edited from vB's default.
