Safer Surfing

2/15/2016

0 Comments

 
Antivirus programs are good and no-one should be without them but now there is a program that can help you avoid going to sites that can cause you problems.  WOT (Web Of Trust) does just that.  By using croudsourcing it gathers opinions from thousands of people on the safety of sites and informs you in a couple of ways.  When you search a topic many of the results will have a green dot indicating that it is a known good site.  If you try to go to a site that WOT doesn't trust you will get a large warning popup that will still allow you to go to the site if you choose.

You will definitely want to look at the warnings, and think twice about going to that site.  Warning that SOME of the messages may be for legitimate sites but it is worth being careful.
