What's This Website Or Download?

[Briggsy]

I've had an interesting time looking at the pinned thread relating to online dictionaries and resources.

I mentioned it to a Thai colleague who speaks very good English. He said at his old company he had a tool or download or programme that caused a Thai translation to pop up when he hovered the cursor over an English word. He said it was great and extremely useful. Judging by the level of his English, I would say he was right.

Has anyone seen anything like this? The only thing that pops into my mind is a similar tool that comes with the CD-ROM for the Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary. Of course that is English to English.

I hope somebody can help.

Maybe this one?

or for chrome:

or fox firefox:

Thanks for your help.

The first one I could not get to work even though I downloaded it. It kept asking me for 1100 Baht within 15 days. So that got uninstalled.

I don't use Chrome so the second link was bypassed.

The third link was added to my Firefox browser and works well. Thanks.

It doesn't quite look like the bubble pop-up that my colleague was talking about but it's close enough for me.

Thanks again.
