I'm running firefox 3.6.13, and WebRep isn't working for me. I click the grey bars in my toolbar, and a)every site I've visited has all grey bars and no rep (even really large sites, such as the Oxford University Dictionary site), and b) if I try to vote, I can select categories and rate it, but clicking the vote button does absolutely nothing. I only installed WebRep a couple days ago & this is the first time I've tried to use it.

Also, the categories are VERY limiting. I wouldn't be able to rate many of the sites I visit because they don't fit into any of them. Luminarium is a literature anthology site, for example, and I also visit archaeology sites, mythology sites, and specialised encyclopaedias. They fit under none of the existing categories. I suggest adding an "education" category, a "science" category, and a "social sciences" category -- or at least, education. Most of the sites I visit either are informative but not news or contain literature or other fiction. I don't consider those "social/hobby," and certainly none of the other categories fit, either. If there's a forum for suggestions, I'll be happy to post this suggestion there.

Working - not working - working on FF, not on IE - not working - working...

Seems to be a little premature, this thing. I begin to not like it.

It shows up two times in the IE8 AddOn list (see screenshot). Is that the way it should be?

It worked for a little while yesterday here in Venezuela, but it is not working today. Running it with FF. I have WOT with IE, and WebRep & WOT together was giving IE an error when launching. I left it in FF to try it out but nothing, nada.

The webrep (web reputation) currently has little to do with protection, all the other resident shield do that. For whatever reason most aren't effected by this my igoogle page works fine. There is another topic relating to this, try a forum search for igoogle.

Webrep seemed like a really good idea.
This working - not working problem still plagues it.
Today I see Avast.com has a grey webrep, and google has a full green webrep.
For the second day in a row I go to give a website a rating and I click vote... but nothing happens.

It's so frustrating, so here's the solution for everyone currently beta-testing Webrep.
And it solves Webrep's working today, broken tomorrow, roller-coaster problem.
I uninstalled it.

I'll try it again later when the Beta bugs are worked out.
