I read that Mozilla notified developers, and almost all my other add-ons (lots of them) were updated for Firefox 5 before the beta appeared, as Mozilla requested. At the moment Avast/WebRep is lagging, IMO. The non-beta of Firefox 5 is scheduled for June 21.

As for WOT, I don’t like it (way too intrusive) but do use LinkExtend alongside WebRep.

Regarding hacking, my request was for the actual developers to make the update - not me.
