This does not work unless you are running transmission from your computer. This extension needs to allow you to change 127.0.0.1 to any other internal IP you want to use. I will update my STARS once this extension is properly enhanced.

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Download with Transmission requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details
  • Medium Enables sending notifications which can be spammed but have minimal direct security impact.
  • Low ******* ****** ** *** ********* ******** ********************
Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Download with Transmission may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
