Default A site advisor !

These days, it's tough to separate benign Web sites from malicious ones. Is the financial Web site you visit the genuine article, or was it set up by a scammer? How about a Web site that promises not to bombard you with e-mail if you register--is it telling you the truth? Are a site's downloads free of spyware and adware?For a simple way to answer these types of questions about a site, try the free McAfee Site Advisor. It adds a button to Internet Explorer or Firefox; click it when you reach a Web site, and you'll see McAfee's report on the site, including the number of e-mail messages the site sends per week after you register, whether the site delivers pop-up windows, and whether the downloads on the site include spyware and adware.
