Many people do not shell out of anti-virus software - it is very expensive, Norton is over £30 a year ! Free Webwise from Phorm will be great for ISP customers who are not willing or able to spend the time and money keeping their PCs secure from attack.

Totally wrong, most PC will come with either Norton/Macfee pre-installed and since your aiming webwise at the newbie market they will continue to renew Norton/Mcafee.
Furthermore, programs such as Mcafee Siteadvisor, Tend-Protect and SiteHound will warn you before you even visit a phishing site, they can be downloaded for free, webwise does not come free either, you lose your privacy, no of the other tools will do that.
Webwise/Phorm is a con, i hope they go bust.
