Don’t known for sure, but based upon an email discussion with HHOTT I got the impression it will work with Titan and Gecko powered browsers.

However, I would try this link to find out for sure.

Good Luck.

I’ve been using HHOTT for about a week now and I really like it. I have noticed some things I would like improved and some features added, but overall I am pleased with it.

Pros – More than just a preview of the web page when you hover over the tiny green icon, which by the way loads extremely fast, it is a working window.

Cons – While navigating in the HHOTT Window none of my Firefox 3 features work, so I close the Window and then open another Firefox tab and continue working.

The Con is not a big enough deal to stop using HHOTT, but it would nice if it at least had mouse gestures.

The testing continues . . .

I am using WOT + AVG, they offer the same thing. There is no preview option though.

Safety is only half the story of HHOTT View. Its fast, clickless browsing feature for IE/FF is the other half. We believe both are unique and useful. Please give both a try. We would love to hear your comments. Thanks!

Firefox with NoScript…no additional apps running, and it’s bulletproof.

The HHOTT developers said above that they’re considering a sandbox preview, but until then the preview function isn’t completely sage – like RanMan also pointed out.

You can always use the ‘safe browsing’ feature, but disable the previews in the HHOTT toolbar if you want to be absolutely safe.

Hi Paul,

Your first question seems to be debated. There are many software products, addons, extensions,etc. that utilize a preview window in one form or another. With my limited experience most of them claim there is no guarantee that the preview is safe once you have “hovered” over it because essentially you have enabled the link. Such as in the Firefox Google Preview extension that a hover-over brings the image to full size without having to click on the image. A few claim their product is safe even if you do hover over it because only the link to the image is opened, not a page that may contain something malicious hidden from the users view. I think it is a question that just needs to be asked with each different product.

Regarding your second question. I just tested HHOTT with Firefox v3.0.5 with the Coolris extension and each seems to work just fine.

Hope this helps.

Cooliris add-on in Firefox has a preview feature now?
Does anybody know if the preview view window is always safe?

Also, can HOTT and CoolIris co-exist in Firefox ?

Thanks
