I have noticed WOT false alerts with more frequency now... troubleshooting forums, sites for freewares, etc. Difficult to trust with so many false positives just based in user opinions.
Does anybody knows a substitution for WOT with Firefox?
Well there is Finjan SecureBrowsing ,It is more of a URL scanning thing as you know.
It seemed to cause a hang more or less in Firefox. What gets me about WOT is someone orders a set of RED jalapeno boxers from a site,they ship a pair of GREEN Jalapeno boxers,and the site gets a red
circle,as if it were downloading malware.
Thats a inherent problem to the comunity based stuff.
The threatfire guys admit as much,when they allow you to opt out of the community based thing and still get updates with the paid version.
