Doesn't work for me at all. I'm in a forum with a sheetload of referral links by the forum which is quasi-spam. I have no way of copying and pasting the referral link into this extension to clean it up and show me the actual link. I'm not about to click on the referral link and [hope] this extension removes the referral link.

Only worked the first time I tried it. After clicking the first link it ceased to work. It also left a ?ref tag in a URL that I pasted without a tag. I can't replicate this behavior, so I'm not reporting it as abuse. But further testing might show it is adding it's own referral tags.
