Site Advisor

If you’ve been beset with viruses, spam and spyware, check out Site Advisor. A plugin for Firefox and Internet Explorer, SiteAdvisor labels certain websites with a colour-coded security rating to help you identify those that might contain spyware, spam, viruses, and online scams. Using sophisticated computer "robots" the team at Site Advisor trawl millions of websites and analyse the contents, adding the results to their database. The Site Advisor tool then presents its findings to you alongside search engine results from Google, Yahoo! or MSN and labels results as either green, yellow or red. SiteAdvisor says it had already rated sites representing more than 95 per cent of internet traffic, with tests revealing that 5 per cent of all internet traffic warranted a "red" warning rating and a further 2 per cent attracting a "yellow" cautionary rating. It is estimated that internet users make more than 1 billion visits to "red" sites each month resulting in countless spyware infections, spam-filled inboxes and hijacked browsers.
