    Si tienes que realizar la busqueda en google para despues tener que decirle que lo abra en IE desde el link correspondiente, es más rápido abrir IE, realizar la búsqueda y abrir la web sin más. Es más rápido y gastas menos recursos/RAM. Lo que si sería ideal es que estando en una web, al pulsar un botón/icono se abriese dicha web de forma automática en IE.

    Doesn't work. Says something about installing native plugin. I'm running 64bit

    The point of Firefox is the fact it's NOT IE!

    Why does this need an exe? It really sounds very much like malware.
    Developer, please explain why we MUST do this.

    Dear user,
    The addon needs to open internet explorer in your PC/MAC. For this, a separate patch is needed, it is called native messaging. Please read more about this technology at: https://developer.chrome.com/apps/nativeMessaging

    Without a separate patch, the addon cannot open external applications (like IE).

    Previous version works without any 3rd party additions. Rolling back to it.
