If VM would dare to raise it's head above the parapet there is a relatively simple question re: the supposed anti-phishing protection given by Webwise....

On a leaflet with the bill I received today is a long speil about PCguard which for L and XL packages is offered with "anti-Phishing". The extras in PCguard "Total" is only free for the higher BB packages and it rather begs the question of why exploit our clicks for profit and then trumpet the virtues of something already covered in a free offering for many\most customers?.

How ironic that the product they give away extolls and covers many virtues of safe surfing whilst they are in the process of considering implementing a click intercept back door which makes previous on computer attempts look like amateur night.
