It’s unbelevable. The program auto-updated itself to latest version and did not work anymore. So I finally decided to follow the general forum advice to uninstall it. PC is faster and surfing too. Wow!!! 
get wot from here : mywot.com (available for both ff and ie).
some say finjan is good (but for me its bit slow) : securebrowsing.finjan.com (available for both ff and ie).
What took you so long, following the forum advice ;D
I have moved to Browser Defender™ from the developers of ThreatExpert:
http://www.browserdefender.com
WOT is too subjectective for me.
why kenny?
Its fast.
added to firefox. let me check for few days.
Ill give it a test run, my only issue is it is a toolbar and I hate toolbar clutter.
I think there is an option where you can turn the toolbar into an icon.Do a search for browser defender in firefoxs about:config and there should be an entry about netbook.Set that to true and no more toolbar.
OK, found browser.bdtoolbar.forcenetbook and have set that to true, I guess I have to restart firefox to get that to apply as it doesn’t by default.
Did it work?
It worked after some fiddling I had to apply it twice it didn’t stick first time so two restarts also.
I find it does slow my browsing (dial-up) so it may not be long for this life on my system.
I have also found another fault with it (not strange in a beta) if a google search extends to more than one page (almost always) subsequent pages just don’t get checked.

I have also just had my first crash on firefox 3.5.3, which might just be co-incidental or just the norm for a beta.
My major concern is the speed or rather lack of it, is slows browsing massively on dial-up for new sites visited; so it is highly likely to find itself in the bit bucket in the not to distant future.
I too had (firefox 3.5.3) three crashes back to back.
Yes it is now history on my system to darn slow even given the benefit of the doubt on the crashes.
What has displeased me more is that it doesn’t clean up after itself when you uninstall it, I checked the about:config for browser.bdtoolbar and there are still 12 entries for it.
and if it is installed for ie, you can see a background process running even after you close ie.
So still much work to be done on this beta tool. I didn’t install it on IE so I can’t comment on how it worked on that.
Try it you might like it.
I don’t know how it performs with dial-up though
I love my 6MB DSL connection.
I somehow doubt the slow browsing speed with this tool would be any different (cra* on dial-up as I have already mentioned), that and the fact of the remnants left behind when uninstalled and the other reported issue with it an IE, no thanks.
Not to mention I really don’t like IE and if I could completely get rid of it I would, it is only there because of its OS integration. On till IE is completely isolated from the OS like other browsers, doesn’t have activeX or BHOs, isn’t integrated to the OS, it will never be my default browser, but there under sufferance.
