I found today a great FREE software for you to download. I read about it in article by Tech expert/guru Walt Mossberg in the WSJ. Walt writes great colums on Personal Technology. If you haven't read them I suggest you start. The software is called site advisor. The software will stop spyware infections, identity theft scams, and warn you of sites which send excessive e-mail. Their is a few items about the software that jump out at me immediately. The software downloads very easy on either Microsoft Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox. Their is no registration form to fill out. The software will catch sites that have scams for charging users software that could be free. It will also notify you of potential harmful sites by placing a red, yellow or green X. The X is placed in search results received from the search engine. For example doing a search on FREE Software will bring back results that show a few sites that the advisor software suggests you use caution when click the link for the site. This is pretty cool. You know ahead of time if a web site is malicious before going to the web page. Give it a try and let me know your experience.
