I've updated this script to use GM_registerMenuCommand. Here is the updated source.

// ==UserScript==

Changelog:
- 5/14/2008 encapsulated code in function so it does cause untold chaos.
- 5/14/2008 added GM_registerMenuCommand to reference new function wrapper. See last line for command :)
*/

function unCheckEm() {
	var cBoxes=document.getElementsByTagName('input');

	for (var i=0; i < cBoxes.length; i++) 
    if (cBoxes[i].type=="checkbox") 
			cBoxes[i].checked=false;

}

GM_registerMenuCommand("Uncheck boxes",unCheckEm);

You can also find a copy of it via my profile.

Cheers!

Btw, this is really useful on stumbleupon when you want to clear like 157 checked boxes at once.

I wonder, if this script will cause me headaches if say I were to go to modify my preferences for my account on a web site... Would it uncheck the checkboxes that I've set previously?
