Actually, iMacros has come in very handy. I've converted some MOD tasks into macros to make it a one-click operation.
One handy use is as a one-click Spam macro(bookmarklet), which I created that basically deletes an entire Spam thread, marking it as such for records. It reduces a four step operation down to one. But its main advantage is that it is fast, taking just a few seconds. In fact, have already had an instance with a familiar spammer who kept posting the same spam thread. Though each time he/she posted the thread, it was almost immediately zapped. I don't think the spammer could figure out why their thread was not showing up, and repeatedly re-posted it multiple times, eventually figuring out that the gig was up, and gave up. :W
Since the iMacros extension may be of interest to those using Firefox, I'll move this thread to the Technology Corner.
