A gift from me to all aspkin members
 

Last night I sat down in a 10 hour coding session and developed a gift for all of you :) Going stealth is the right path to go... BUT.

Have you felt a bit awkward when you had a friend or your wife sitting on your computer, browsing on eBay.com and on the top left part of the screen there was a "Hi, Anthony" message, when your name is George, for instance ?

How are you going to explain that to your friend or wife ?

You don't even have to... because I have developed a Firefox Add-On that does exactly that !

You simply enter your real name from preferences and it changes the name that the site displays from the stealth name to your real name :)

Problem solved ! :canada:

Download it from: http://www.mediafire.com/?33k5cbxyxly3071

To install it, simply open Tools => Add-Ons from window options of Firefox and drag and drop it into.

Then enter your name on preferences.

If you guys really like this, I will consider porting to chrome, maybe safari too.

When i look at the spot where the name should be all i see is $$$$$$

I live in Eastern Europe, so double identities and assumed names are a way of life.

Nice gesture .
However if anyone went near my computers they would be having a poke in the eye most promtly ..
And my wife has learned if she doesnt like the answers she doesnt ask the questions ..

This is why, I have a separate selling laptop for all of my ebay selling business. I dont let nobody touch my baby. If my sister or mom wants to use my laptop, I give them the other one. I even take my baby with me everywhere I go also.

Weird. I will look into this ! Have you entered your name on preferences ?

Wise move.
Someone could cause untold damage to stealths if they had access to your laptop logging into things they should not be ..
Who knows what they do when your not looking so its just easier to ban them from touching it ..

I was at McDonalds last time and some b*tch stole my laptop with all my stealth stuff on it. I'll never let that happen again.

And plus, I dont want anyone to know what I do, I just tell them I sell on ebay. Plus trying to tell anyone the truth will be impossible to explain. The only thing that will come into their minds is that I use other people's IDs for selling online, which would equal to ID theft.

Trying to explain to people that I do not do ID theft is impossible when they already made up their minds on me. If they want to see something on ebay, I direct them to my buyers only account with my real name on it. If they ask why all of the users accounts on my OS, I tell them "business partners". hahaha

Sounds like a good plan but "business partners" is not a good excuse to tell family members :P

Stealth should be adopted at all given chances .
Especially with family members if they would not understand or comprehend what you are trying to acheive .
Unless its of benefit to me that someone knows my business i will refrain from enlightening them , Including family.

I might agree but I am saying that the above excuse is not good :)

Oh fug - how'd you let that happen Elijah?

I have the same question :D

Probably pinched his laptop while he was puking his guts out from McDs food.

Now that would be scary.

My string of computers are never touched by anyone. They all know better.

Besides everyone in the house has their own personal laptop.

Awesome share OP.

That's the ideal situation.

Though a lot of people like me only have one computer.

And there might be times when you want to say to your wife, check this item honey :) And the name will be there...

So you want to get rid of that ! :D

Guys, by the way... let me know if you want this ported to Google Chrome and Safari :) I have free time... haha !

Should not go slumming then

Starbucks have a better class of consumers.


J/K, that is terrible. Do you not have everything on lockout?

Hahahaha !
