With anonymox activated my real ip flashes up

With anonymox activated my real ip address flashes up everytime a new browser window is opened (in the top right hand corner of my browser where the addon displays ip the address). It's only for a moment before it changes to display the active selected ip, and I am trying to establish if this is normal or if I have an ip leak of some sort.

Hello, the reviews for anonymoX add-on it is not so...great, i think you can write a review or, better, try to contact with the developer of the add-on and tell him the issue. It is not firefox problem.

If i was...you, i'll try a vpn, not an add-on.

p.s. i already use a paid vpn program, and believe me, it is not a waste of money :-)

thank you

Ah, ok - for some reason I thought anonymox was a firefox product.

I appreciate the links.

I've been considering a vpn but the good ones seem to be a bit more than I want to pay. It might come to that though.

I appreciate the reply, thanks.
