Tasks / Secret Word Browser Plugin

Create a plugin for a web browser (we prefer Firefox, natch) that retrieves the Secret Word of the Day from a server (this is a must - everyone using the plugin must have the same word). When the user goes to a website that uses the Secret Word of the Day, the word should become highlighted, and there should be a very noisy (visually and auditorially) display of excitement - ideally, this would include things like sliding CD-ROM trays in and out, flipping the screen off and on, etc. In keeping with the plugin's inspiration, the user should probably be informed of what the Secret Word is in advance.
A possible variant of this task would be a Secret Website of the Day, which a user would not be informed of in advance.
