I, and several members here, use SiteAdvisor.
It's a handy little tool, to help you browse the internet more safely.
You can find out more about it from the homesite, and download it from there:

Hi gibb:

Thanks a bunch for a great tip!

I've been using a program called SiteHound that is similar but SiteAdvisor looks to be much better as it gives far more information about a site.

I've just installed it in Firefox and it seems to work great.

Since it's a McAfee product it's perfectly safe and reliable and I don't think you need have any worries about it.

Cheers,

scratcher.

If this is the tool developed by McAfee a while back, it's been highly recommended to me by friends on another forum. I don't use it myself (since I don't need no steenkin' Site Advisor) :thumbsup:
