Interclue warning!
A minute back i was hovering the cursor over the POST" can't delete files"by kakakaren and Interclue came up with this :

Remember that from the point of view of the website, clueviewing a link is the same as clicking it.
Clueviewing or clicking such links can sometimes cause actions to occur, particularly when you are "Logged in" to a website, however, most well designed sites will not allow you to do anything drastic with just one click.
Clicking it might do something bad
I'm pretty sure it's safe
Don't ask me again about danger words on this site
Disable Interclue altogether while i'm using this website

For comparison i chose Jason08's post 'Question about AV and conflicts" Interclue came up with this :
Hi all,
I know anti-viruses such as McAfee, Avira, and other ones will conflict with other anti-virus programs on the same computer, but what I'm not completley sure why AVs and anti-malware programs can be installed on the same computer and there are no conflicts. Right now I have McAfee and Malwarebytes installed, and they do not conflict, but if I had McAfee and Avira, they would, since that's 2 AVs. So why question, is how different is the scan of anti-malware programs compared to anti-viruses that an anti-virus and an anti-malware (or spyware) program can be installed on the same computer, but not 2 AVs and no anti-malware programs? I think it has something to do with the fact that an anti-malware program like MBAM scans for all infected files, not just viruses, but then, it includes viruses right? And the confusing part to me is that my McAfee also scans not only for viruses but other types of malware as well, like MBAM.
Thanks, Jason

Jason:

If you have multiple antispyware programs installed that have "real time" scanning, that's where the conflict comes in.

I personally use the free version of Malwarebytes and SUPERAntiSpyware, which don't have "real time" scanning, therefore I don't worry about a conflict.

There was a continuation of the replies (to Jason08's post), but i stopped here. Now, that's how Interclue, a FF Add-on works! THANK YOU ALL!
