Much thanks David. Im working on an addon called "Floppers". It's for Twitter. It also tells you who has blocked you. So how it does this is it checks the history of users that you have been in contact with but not on your Following or Follewer lists, it checks behind the scense. How it does it is by "Requesting Friend" on each account behind the scense, after the XMLHTTPRequest completes, the req either goes through or come back saying you are blocked, and i updated my SQLite database. However if it went through I must cancel the request so the user on the other end never sees the req came. So its critical I keep firefox open for at least 1 more XMLHTTPReq and thats to cancel the req. Which should be just 1 to 30 seconds max (for super slow connections). Im worried if a ctrl+alt+del happens after the friend req is sent, im trying to find a way to notify the user when the process is hung up or crashed after the first req.
Much thanks for the reply David and really appreciate this module nonetheless, it should help me with making that final call if they don't ctrl+alt+del the process or some other thing causes the process to hang/crash.
