The new update is pretty cool. It has WOT and SiteAdvisor  included plus a bunch of new optional features. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5791

Just downloaded the program and haven't gotten into all the finer points of the program, but so far it's really cool.

XMarks is the deal killer for me...i've hated it since day one.

I've grown to love it. Just disable the site suggestions or whatever it's called.

Edit: Xmarks isn't installed. It just adds a shortcut to their site suggestions which you can disable and it won't show. http://www.xmarks.com/site/www.computerhope.com
