I was just browsing a site using Firefox 3, www.local.com, which is run by a friend of mine.  When I went to see what their “advertise us” page looked like this is what came up.  Through Firefox 3 Google has “invaded” my browsing experience.  I know that the intention of this is that Google/Firefox is helping to protect me but I am not sure who I feel who is worse, a malicious site or Google watching and intervening in my browsing experience without my opt-in through Firefox 3. I will have to find out how to turn this off.
