    You are relying on others to determine a sites safety. The problem is this program could be installed by morons & ape like users. I'm starting to find the results of this are that safe sites are shown as un-safe & vice-versa. It was good but I'm removing it now. This is not ‘WOT's’ fault, just morons & gorillas.

    Excellent freeware add on.
    It is not spyware and it is based on user ratings (it is not a crawler, in other words) and several Trusted Sources in order to fight even "non techical" security (eg: social engeneering)
    Some people do not even bother to read WOT F.A.Q and WOT wiki, evidently;)

    This software has become more of a problem than a solution. It's giving false warnings and showing sites as safe when they aren't.

    Certainly, "nothing at all on the internets is to be trusted." [sic] Except for the sites you do trust, and there have to be some or you wouldn't use the internets at all. Also, trust is not black and white, it's a sliding scale. Of course.

    Please name the "better solutions".
