I keep getting update alerts.. even though there aren't any.

Additionally, the "Install" button on that prompt does not work. Can't you just do:

location.href = "http://userscripts.org/scripts/source/8861.user.js";

?

Hi Avindra, The most recent version fixes the bug where the "install" button would not work, so please make sure you're using the latest version. Obviously you'll have to install it from this site and not using the button the script shows you.

I think there was a reason why I couldn't just set 'location.href' to do the install, but I can't remember why. I'll take a look at the code when I get a chance.
