Personally I've found Finjan to be alot more accurate. Downside is that it takes longer to load.

I did OK, read the privacy policy and judged the look of the site, got 7 of 8 right.

One thing of note. I would not ever, signup for any of these sites. I don't know, I sort of think that anyone who does is asking to be spammed. Just my humble opinion on those types of sites.

4/8
didn't read anything, just by the looks of the site.
I paid attention on how many ads there where on the website.

Doesn't matter, since I use 10minutemail for almost all websites
