Site Reviews by wehaveitall in the Norton Safe Web community Wed May 23 09:16:33 +0000 2012 http://safeweb.norton.com/profile/wehaveitall I've used their spotlightus service, and have been using them to find wiki articles for several months. Great service. My only comment is that many dangerous websites aren't marked accordingly on their associated wiki page. This isn't necessarily their fault, but perhaps a better job of regulating this could be done. Thu, 10 Dec 2009 16:36:41 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=aboutus.org Great website. I bought a bracelet here and it made a great gift. Definitely safe. Sun, 31 May 2009 20:00:53 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=savvycollector.com Listed in the Hphosts blacklist for the distribution of malware:http://hosts-file.net/?s=2020software.com Tue, 10 Mar 2009 19:35:03 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=2020software.com Similarly to Smiley Central, this download is contaminated with spyware, and there's hundreds of reviews online to show it. Fri, 20 Feb 2009 22:07:50 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=popularscreensavers.com Many of the downloads contained in this website contain forms of malware. Fri, 20 Feb 2009 22:05:42 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=bestsoftware4download.com This website claims to give you free cds upon sign up, but in reality, it sends you more cds and charges you every seven weeks, without explaining their practices very well, and instead emphasizing it's completely free.. It's in their terms and conditions, but not clearly noted anywhere else. Some could argue its typical marketing in action, while others could claim its a complete fraud. Fri, 20 Feb 2009 21:58:09 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=freesoftwarecd.net Although this has had mixed ratings with WOT and Browser Defender, reviews show that the website isn't all bad. Some of the downloads are unsafe, but many of the downloads contained in this website are safe for download. Fri, 20 Feb 2009 21:52:51 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=vicman.net Great website for the latest security related news. Fri, 20 Feb 2009 21:44:07 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=freepcsecurity.co.uk Well known website, that works to blacklist and shut down spamming websites, by contacting the ISP provider. It is also endorsed by the WOT staff. Fri, 20 Feb 2009 21:42:45 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=spacequad.com Almost all, if not all the registry cleaners contained in this website are safe. It wouldn't be a bad idea, however, to check the specific website's reviews on SafeWeb, before downloading it, on any website recommending registry cleaners. Fri, 20 Feb 2009 21:40:15 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=findaregistrycleaner.com The downloads contained within this website are rogue programs, exaggerating the number of errors to encourage you to buy a product that really doesn't help anything. Avoid this website. http://www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/inklineglobal.com Fri, 20 Feb 2009 21:29:05 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=inklineglobal.com Redirects to http://www.firetrust.com/en/products/sitehound, a safe website, offering a variety of security services. Sitehound in particular is an add-on similar to SafeWeb, that scans websites and displays their rating. Fri, 20 Feb 2009 19:50:48 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=sitehound.com The owner isn't from Canada, making the name a bit odd. Even so, many of their downloads contain some form of malware. A good download website takes some precautions to make sure the downloads are safe. This website fails to do so. Fri, 20 Feb 2009 19:47:59 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=canadiancontent.net Almost every download on this website contains some form of malware. Fri, 20 Feb 2009 19:44:22 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=topshareware.com A dangerous download. Its entire awards section is composed of dangerous websites, websites containing only ads, and also contains several fake awards. It's also listed unsafe by Finjan and SiteAdvisor. Fri, 20 Feb 2009 19:40:43 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=soundeditordeluxe.com This is a program to manage and accelerate downloads, that secretly bundles malware, trojans etc. Wed, 18 Feb 2009 13:56:12 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=freedownloadmanager.org A good download website takes some precautions to stop dangerous downloads. This one takes very few, if any. It's not as bad as some, but still filled with some dangerous downloads. http://www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/filebuzz.com Wed, 18 Feb 2009 13:53:20 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=filebuzz.com A normal download website takes some precautions to stop dangerous downloads. This website fails to do so, and because of this, is filled with malware, and has been marked dangerous on WOT, SiteAdvisor, SafeWeb, Browser Defender, and Hphosts blacklist. http://www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/freedownloadscenter.com http://hosts-file.net/?s=freedownloadscenter.com http://www.siteadvisor.com/sites/freedownloadscenter.com?ref=safesearch&client_ver=FF_26.6_6275&locale=en-US&premium=false&aff_id=0 http://www.browserdefender.com/site/freedownloadscenter.com/ Wed, 18 Feb 2009 13:48:37 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=freedownloadscenter.com Many people have claimed Conduit is dangerous, and it is actually listed in Hphosts But conduit, in fact is used by mlb.com, and also holds a TRUSTe seal. On the contrary, there were some reports of it leaving the possibility of hijacking your browser when it is installed, and it was banned from the Firefox add-ons website for security flaws such as this. It's not really unsafe on purpose necessarily, but it can be harmful. Wed, 18 Feb 2009 13:38:20 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=conduit.com This website is made up almost exclusively of dangerous downloads A good download website takes some precautions to prevent this, but this website fails to do so.

Almost all of it, however, is dangerous. Wed, 18 Feb 2009 13:20:29 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=exefind.com This website is a toolbar builder that secretly puts malware in their downloads. In addition to being listed in the Hphosts blacklist, red in WOT, and suspicious downloads in Mcafee, it makes many false claims that Skype, as well as other reputable companies recommend it. Wed, 18 Feb 2009 13:13:55 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=besttoolbars.net This website is known for its dangerous pop-ups, leading you to download dangerous screensavers, and is listed in the Hphosts blacklist.

It has dangerous downloads, misleading marketing practices, and fakes viruses, to try and lead you into buying the software. Another SafeWeb user saying its worth it because it found 207 viruses has fallen into the trap. This is a complete fraud, and wouldn't find any legitimate. Even if it did, 207 viruses is near impossible. Tue, 17 Feb 2009 20:23:41 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=antispyware.com Finds false threats, as to trick you into buying software that does more harm than good. Tue, 17 Feb 2009 20:17:50 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=antispyware.org This website is listed in the Hphosts blacklist twice, for malicious content and malware. (If there's a difference..) Tue, 17 Feb 2009 20:15:44 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=freeserials.ws Asks for unnecessary personal information, such as phone number, and home address in order to send an e-card. This information is most likely sold to marketers. Tue, 17 Feb 2009 20:12:47 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=aavalue.com In addition to its obvious dangers, just by looking at the website, check this out:http://www.siteadvisor.com/sites/kwikecards.com?ref=safesearch&client_ver=FF_26.6_6275&locale=en-US&premium=false&aff_id=0 Tue, 17 Feb 2009 20:10:59 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=kwikecards.com Upon choosing your e-card, it redirects you to ezgreets.aavalue.com, which tries and tricks you into giving personal information, such as your home address, cellular phone number, etc. which they sell to advertisers. Tue, 17 Feb 2009 20:10:00 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=ez-greets.com Another fake registry cleaner. It claims its rated by Softpedia as 100% safe, when really, its not listed in softpedia at all due to dangers. Avoid this at all costs. Mon, 16 Feb 2009 20:08:22 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=registrycleaner2009.com A rogue software download, that harms your computer, and fakes errors.

Mon, 16 Feb 2009 20:02:11 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=woink.com This website emphasizes free ringtones, but charges the user monthly upon trying it.. Mon, 16 Feb 2009 15:06:23 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=ringtone.com Every advisor that has a rating for this website rates it unsafe. Avoid it.

Mon, 16 Feb 2009 12:17:00 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=linkbrander.com No, this website doesn't harm your computer. It doesn't spy on your surfing habits, or scatter rootkits throughout your computer. But it uses somewhat misleading marketing tactics. They make it sound free, but when you sign up for a credit report which they tell you is free, they charge you monthly. Mon, 16 Feb 2009 11:29:26 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=freecreditreport.com This very safe and helpful add-on is similar to SafeWeb, scanning websites for dangers to alert their users. I would recommend using it, WOT, and SafeWeb all together. Mon, 16 Feb 2009 10:41:08 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=siteadvisor.com This is an add-on similar to SafeWeb, that scans webpages for safety.

They are really good, and are very safe. Mon, 16 Feb 2009 09:14:43 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=azhappytails.com This website like many registry cleaners makes up phony numbers of files that need to be fixed, and merely shows the same files again and again to trick you into buying this. http://www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/regcure.com/comment-23359 YOU DONT NEED REGISTRY CLEANERS! You're registry is small, and fixing EVERYTHING wouldn't make more than a half a second increase in loading times. Mon, 16 Feb 2009 09:13:31 +0000 http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?url=regcure.com Like many registry review websites, they only recommend products that use misleading marketing techniques, or are very dangerous. None of the websites listed here are legitimate registry cleaners, and this website shouldn't be trusted.

It uses a meritocracy like system, in which you gain trust, based on how many users agree with you, along with the help of blacklists, to determine their rating. I would recommend using this, SiteAdvisor, and SafeWeb in conjunction.
