It might just be too fast for the icon to show up. But you can also check under Settings > Packing & Saving to see if the Google Gears option is set to Yes.

IE? Dunno. I think it’s a legacy thing. Many folks are stuck with it at work.

I have Google Gears installed on my computer, but I never see the little red icon in the top corner. I’m using Google Chrome, and it usually only takes 1-2 seconds to unpack everything, so I guess it doesn’t make too big of a difference.

Also, why are people still using IE?

AJay. Make sure you’ve got cookies activated. If you still have problems, contact support and they’ll get to the bottom of it:

Seems like every time I come back to PassPack, it asks me to re-enable gears support. Same thing for every other site also.

@Jephir and @Itai – Glad to hear it.

@Oliver – Interesting, I’ll submit that to the Suggestions Box.

You should make a standards compliant version that makes use of the new Workers APIs in HTML5 (or the Web Workers spec) these are supported in nightly builds of Safari and Firefox.

It’s noticeably faster for me. Good.
