not sure if this is quite an exploit , more just strange behaviour..

Haven't tested it in older firefox but it shows up in the new firefox.

p.s. theres always a poss it could crash firefox so dont have anything important on it , but its nothing nefarious just strange.

been awile since i saw an autobookmark script like this

i haxored google

Doesn't work for me with 2.0.0.2.

Other than preloading javascript, causing a bookmark to pop open (which still needs a manual confirmation), and your 1.wxv embedding which doesn't work - I fail to see what you're trying for.

oh well.. guess just wasting your time.. it worked though

you in a bad mood or something.. ?

embedded files that you dont have plugins for dont work,, period regardless of your browser ( most people have wmp controlling ther wmp file extensions )

bookmarks need confirmation in firefox.

I was pointing out a strange behavious , you must not have seen it , dont lose any sleep over it..

No. I was just confused as to what else it was supposed to do, if I had missed it or not - not trying to seem all angry or anything.. just curious.

Bookmarks in FF do require confirmation, and yes, they open in the sidebar; I haven't found a decent workaround for this behavior, yet. I do have full WMP 11 w/ plugins, which works for FF - the embedding just wouldn't work for me, I even dropped it in by hand (when I did without the JS, it worked).

heh ok point taken

what it does is forwards you to google and pops the bookmark after your already at google so it appears that google is asking for the confirmation..

the other stuff i just had in there from a popup script

[aico]

what am I looking for? I got the Bookmark pop up, but the plug-in was missing, and I got a install missing plug-in button. When I hit Cancel on the bookmark, it takes me to Google. (fuck adwords!!!)

try it again.. please unless you are busy

Oh, I gotcha. For me, the popup hit before I got redirected for the plugin, then google.. so I knew it came from your site.

Ages ago, I swear at least ONE of the browsers would do a popup that said JAVASCRIPT PROMPT (Site): ...

Maybe I'm just smoking crack. Thanks for the explaination.

[SmokeyTheBear]

this is what i see in my firefox. mind you maybe it only works if you type in the url

[SmokeyTheBear]

nope i tried it in firefox from clicking the link and it worked the same way, dunno whats wrong with your comp must be not likee something or you have non-default settings.

[BigBen]

Started seeing the "Add bookmark" pop which only showed the title bar, but then crashed.

1.5.0.10

[Oracle Porn]

this is what i see in my firefox. mind you maybe it only works if you type in the url

thats what i see too...

[SmokeyTheBear]

thats what i see too...

ok i'm not crazy after all

it seems to be bug where its still running java from the previous page while on the new page.

[SmokeyTheBear]

i'll have to tool around with it a bit i just happened to notice it while messing with some popup code, but i bet it has some bigger holes like faking an install

[CyberHustler]

If anyone cares, my firefix add on javascript blocker blocked that whole link... blank page for me.

[SmokeyTheBear]

if you get the full effect now it will appear google has a popup for live.com and a message from me

[emthree]

2.0.2 crashed

[woj]

kinda cool, but is it useful for anything? heh

wherever theres an exploit theres something usefull inside

it does appear it could be exploited, if you look at the demo now it will spawn an exe prompt that appears to come from google and the bookmark also points to my site but shows up on google.
