Changelog

Version 0.1.1.0

Bug Fix: When a link would have a trailing slash and the text of it wouldn't, the plugin would detect it as a malicious link. This behavior has been corrected.

Version 0.1.0.0

Ditched the jQuery dependency
Changed the regex based on the UserScript provided by listen2
Changed the Selector to match only links that begin with http so the extension is faster and use less resources
Implemented unescaped HTML check between URL and the text itself. Thanks again listen2 for this.

Version 0.0.1.13
