TrendProtect Warns Internet Explorers About Dangerous Websites
TrendProtect is a Web of Trust like web browser plugin for Microsoft Internet Explorer (and soon Firefox) from security developers Trend Micro. The plugin for Internet Explorer will scan and rate the active website and websites listed in search results of the major search engines Google Search, Yahoo Search
and MSN (surprisingly not Bing Search). Up to two different indicators are shown on websites. Always visible is the TrendProtect toolbar item that changes its color depending on the rating of the active website.
Seven different color coded ratings are used in the browser plugin. Most important ratings are green for a safe website, red for a dangerous website and yellow which indicates undesirable and suspicious contents.
