Firefox app for comparison shopping.

Good day everyone. Hopefully I'm putting this in the correct forum, and hopefully I'm not making a repeat post.

If you use Firefox as your internet browser, it has an add-on for comparison shopping called Invisible Hand. Whilst you're shopping online, it looks for deals on your items and alerts you to whether or not you can find your item cheaper elsewhere. I searched Expedia for tickets for the holidays, and it alerted me to other websites that had the same plane tickets for a cheaper price.

Happy shopping.

I use it myself it doesn't do everything and occasional misses deals. Also you sometimes find because the add on uses affiliate links that once you find the deal go into a cashback site, merchant and then add that deal and you get cashback

A friend of mine got one of these applications on her laptop, which is very intrusive (every time you point at something on any website it will show products to buy) and she can't get rid of it. It doesn't show up under apps, or programmes.
Will do e bit of search to help her, but jut a bit of warning to people to make sure they know that what they are downloading is the right application, will post name here when I look into it.

Edit: it's called Superfish Window Shopper, and it was probably attached to another programme she download. It's definitely malware

Edit2: it was attached to another addon, we got rid of a few and Superfish Window Shopper disappeared
