Selective Loading #3

Currently the IPINT extension loads up all URLs for any given set of IP addresses. If you have a page with 50 unique IP addresses, for example, you may experience slowdown and even thermal issues due to the graphical nature of ThreatCrowd.

Recommend making the extension load each set of websites only as needed - on a per-IP basis as the links are clicked.

Resolved this issue in version 1.1. Moved main IFrame and div functions further down in the code to only initiate loading as the user clicks an OSINT resource to request it.

This may cause a performance impact by not pre-loading information, but it will also improve responsiveness so it should be a wash, or even better performing now.
