Firefox Add On of The Week: McAfee SiteAdvisor


This weeks Firefox add on of the week McAfee SiteAdvisor, isn't really just for firefox but also works on Internet Explorer. SiteAdvisor is a security add on which use a color coding system to tell you if the site is dangerous or not. Green means the site is safe, Yellow means use cation, and red mean the site is dangerous. It will block you from visiting red rated sites to protect your computer from malware. SiteAdvisor also adds on a little indicator to your search pages (like google and yahoo) to tell you if the site that you are searching is safe or not.

The only issue that I have with McAfee SiteAdvisor is that sometimes the main add on stops working while the search engine part still works. At least in Firefox it does.
