Features & Capabilities

IP2Location IP Geolocation is a plugin to get information about the geographical location of the web server based on the IP address of the URL links in web pages. You can prevent phishing activities by know more about the servers information. It is easy to use as you can now see the information on the same page in a nicely formatted box. See information like the IP address, country, state, city, ISP, latitude, longitude as well as the server time.

To use this plugin, you just put your mouse over a link and a tiny icon will appear, click on that icon to retrieve information for that URL.

In the information box that appears, you also have access to 3 useful features under [More Tools>>]; these are the ability to ping that IP address, perform traceroute or view that URL from our proxies which are located around the globe.

doesn't work with FF 122. Issue appears when clicking on ip2 icon - icon doesn't do anything (also tried RMB ->"Open in new tab" - only opening that ico as new tab. Add-on on list keeps being grayed-out with "Can't read or change data on this website" error.
