When hovering over a "special link" (ie. a .EXE file), the Link Alert icon will be transparent, allowing you to see web content behind it.

Obviously, you must have the Firefox Add-on "Link Alert" installed (installer link below)

* Thanks to Diago for introducing me into the realm of Transparency with Vista Transparency Theme

You can Customize the amount of transparency by editing the Opacity in the code (Closer to 0 is closer to invisible, whereas closer to 1 is closer to fully-visible - EXAMPLE: 0.5 is in the middle of opacity) Currently, the code has it at .8 see-thru (which means it is 20% transparent and 80% opaque)

This makes your Link Alerts easier to see behind, allowing you to view all the web page content without moving your mouse, blocking the text or images!

Applies to:
+ Hovering over any content type of link (https brings up a lock, .js extension shows a javascript icon, new window shows a window...)
+ Transparency on your mouse notification area for each link's fi
To use this style, install Firefox and Stylish.
