Ever wondered why firefox extension install makes you wait for a few seconds?

I was quite surprised to know the reason behind it. The reason for the delay is to prevent a very intelligent attack. Read about the attack here: http://www.squarefree.com/2004/07/01/race-conditions-in-security-dialogs/

BTW, the attack is quite cool. I am impressed!
