The author has been informed about this bug.
This seems to be due to SDK bug 724433, right?

I just informed the developer about the 1.5 SDK.
Please note that according to bug 730566 comment #5, some SDK leaks are still present.

I just sent a message to the developer requesting them to update to the 1.6 SDK and submit an update.
This add-on appears to be abandoned, and the pwrseo domain used for something else. Since it never gained more than preliminary approval and has negligible usage, we can close this bug.
