Overall Rating: 2.5 out of 5 – This survey panel has proved it self in spades to me. It has a decent amount of surveys and not that bad incentives. Although, I do want to say you won't qualify for most of the surveys. Overall this survey site loses itself another half a point (.5) upgrade over my last score back on (Oct 2011) of 3/5. Do to it's dramatic decrease in direct e-mail survey invites.
————-
**Extra Information: Once you reach your $25 cash out minimum. Don't be surprised if it takes a 1 or 2 months to get your chosen reward. It took me almost 3 months to get my Paypal payout of $30 CAD. "Not the worst I have seen, by a long shot. But no where near the best ether."
GMT or Greenwich Mean Time- is a time system originally referring to mean solar time at the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, London, and later became adopted as a global time standard. It is arguably the same as Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) and when this is viewed as a time zone the name Greenwich Mean Time is especially used by bodies connected with the United Kingdom, such as the BBC World Service, the Royal Navy, the Met Office and others.
Reply: There was no real magic. Just a lot of brainstorming and some luck. I knew what I was going to talk about. So I figured it fit my purpose and theme. And that was pretty much it.

A. Ease of use: 4/5 – It's pretty straight to the point. Just right-click a word while shift / ctrl / alt to quickly lookup anything in Wiktionary and or Wikipedia, without the need to open any new tabs.
B. Security – Absolutely No Impact On FireFox Security Or PC Security
C. Usefulness: 5/5 – At times it can be a a little slow. If you have a lot of tabs opened. But it provides a very quick reference tool. With pout having to keep going back to the main wiki page.

E. Computer Slow Down: Very Little
F. Type Of User I Would Recommend To Use This Add-on: Beginners to Moderate Skilled FireFox user

(You need 1,000 points to claim a $10 value prize or reward)
Sign-Up Time: Pretty Long
How Many Survey Invitations Should You Expect Per Week: 1 – 50
How Long Does It Take To Collect A Reward Or Cash Out: Often less then 1 month for $10 CAD. But as of late it seems a lot longer as some users may find it taking up to 2 full months to get your 1,000 points ($10 CAD)
Do They SpamYou: No
Overall Rating: 3 out of 5 – This survey site once again takes a hit with regards to the "Time frame it takes to received promised points from past completed surveys." I now get roughly 5 to 50 surveys invites a month and with thous 5 – 50 surveys invites. I generally will make the needed 1,000 points.
So I can often redeem my points for a Chapters/Indigo e- gift cards (Basically a code you can enter and redeem your $10 CAD voucher via the Chapters/Indigo online store.) The main reason I choose that reward is because I don't have to wait long. In fact you will generally get the e-gift card serial number with in something like 5 – 30 minutes max. So you are off to the races instead of waiting for a prize such as a $10 CAD Paypal payout or other such rewards.
———————-
Some Extra Important Site Information: I have noticed it is now taking way over a month from the time you have done the survey to get credited with your points (Meaning usable to cash out or claim prize with. But you will notice on your balance sheet the credit is there normally right after you have completed the survey) Which is almost double the time it use to take. Less then even a 9 months back.
As the title suggested. We are going to be doing 2 scam mail database updates later this week. And if you are interested in seeing what I am talking about please see the following link:
A. Ease Of Use: 4/5 – A very easy and straight forward add-on. But there are still some settings that can get a bit tedious to newer users.
B. Security: Not Applicable To This Add-on
C. Usefulness: 5/5 – Both my life as a member (CSW) and my life on the net would be a lot harder without this add-on. If you ever wondered how to say something in another language. Or even if you just ran into a site and or blog that is not in your own language.
D. FireFox Slowdown: A slight hiccup of a few seconds. When you first select the option.
E. Computer Slow Down: Same as above
F. Type Of User I Would Recommend To Use This Add-on: Any level of Firefox user
