McAfee SiteAdvisor...well...

I've been using the free version for a few months now. IMO its nothing that great. And a plus version that also isn't that great (but charges you money!)...

What are your thoughts?

i dont think its that great either. site advisor (free) doesnt block u from accessing "red" sites and it seems several sites need to be retested.

 

Is there anything that can block the sites and is like site advisor? I just know not to go to them if they are red of yellow.

 

I have the strong impression, since SA is a McAfee brand, the reliability is going down rapidly.

LinkScanner Pro,but its still beta. seems to be working well on my pc. But being beta theres bound to be some bugs that need to be ironed out.(scoketshield) http://explabs.com/ls/beta/

sitehound can also block u from visiting sites.

 

I think that's enough personally. A big red spot in the search results is enough. Most red sites are obvious anyway, you know they'd be red.

My big question is WHY DOES MCAFEE HAVE TO MAKE EVERYTHING PAID!? ITS A SIMPLE PRODUCT ITS NOT WORTH PAYING FOR!

 

Is sitehound free?

 

yes it is free. there is also a paid version.

 

MONEY like always. McAfee isn't a charity organization.
