WOT - A Better Site Advisor

WOTI tried to live with SiteAdvisor as long as I could, but McAfee’s over commercialization of the free product has lead me to look for a replacement.

That is where WOT comes into the picture. WOT is another extension for Firefox that acts as a reputation checker. Once installed it leaves a tiny footprint in the browser (which you can see in the picture above) and allows for quick and easy rating of links.

WOT is a free service that provides web site reputation information for users. You can download it as a simple add-on for your browser that determines the trustworthiness of websites based on direct testimonies from the users themselves.

All in all - I like WOT a lot better than SiteAdvisor. There isn’t a huge logo slapped across my browser, and I get no click-through ads like SiteAdvisor delivers. Give it a shot for yourself, because the more users this service has - the better the experience will become.
