Effective and simple. Didn't know that this kind of plug-in could even work! Bravo
Just installed this extension and attempted to read an article on the NYTimes.com website. When I attempted to use this extension? It took me to a page that stated nothing but this:
"12ft has been disabled for this site"
At this URL:
