C.K. Just Finally Finished this. I know it isn't your thing, but you should really just try it for fun. Here is the info on Low End Mac's FB page I just posted with the link:

   I had noticed -- I've actually received a number of questions this morning, so hopefully you'll take the official word I'm issuing publicly in the spirit it's intended:

   But, thanks for the hard work. That is always appreciated.

   Hey You All!  Am out of town in seclusion working on my Novel, and will only be checking messages every few weeks.  Will get back in touch when time permits.
   
   Happy 2013!

   I ABSOLUTELY understand your position. I discuss the use of the Newer version for security-relevant work in the Read Me, if for no other practical reason yet.

   I don't want you to think that I am, in any way, trying to undercut security - as the Read Me also discusses all the best super-cookie/spywear blocking addons:

   Adblock Plus (prevents many banners, popups AND redirects)
   BetterPrivacy, (Super-Cookie Killer)
   DoNotTrackMe, (Prevents Super-Cookies from being saved)
   Trackerblock (Prevents History Tracking based on HTML5 LocalStorage)

   With these four installed, it is actually much tougher for a tracking/spywear cookie to get a foothold.

   Also the read me gives directions to the iMacros security page that provides simple directions on changing the Master Password and a great generator for modifying passwords, when needed (to incentivize continued use of password encryption)

   At this point it just seems like there can probably be a balanced approach. With any luck - in a year the older build won't even be needed, but for a lot of PPC users - plugins are still a daily use thing, at least at this point, and as good as TenFourKit is, your system is still much better and user friendly. Security is only ever going to be as secure as the sites one visits, and the majority of exploits on any Mac (barring Java) will likely still require user participation (like those infernal "FBI" have discovered pirated content on your computer - scams).

   Thanks for taking a peak at it. Just released an update that also shares iMacros files between the two versions.

   Or the updater for those that installed the original version.

   Thanks Again - for your work on this.

   Adam
