Download Helper Extension went spammy

I don't know when they changed it, but Download helper extension has started doing malware style things like putting ads I don't want to see superimposed on my webpages and such. It's really noticable when you're using Adblock and NoScript, and there's shit you don't want up there on the screen.

So I disabled that extension.

Shame too, since it was useful and convenient for grabbing videos and the such. But until they quit doing that, I'll stop recommending this extension to anyone else.
