Re: Virgin Media Phorm Webwise Adverts [Updated: See Post No. 1, 77, 102 & 797]

McAfee Site Advisor doesn't download a list at all; it submits the url once entered and compares it with a central database - which also means it is more up to date than a copy kept on a client machine so Webwise doesn't have any advantage over this free product either. Furthermore it scores domains on features other than just phishing - it will flag up sites that have suspicious downloads on offer (trojans and the like), sites that use browser exploits, will flag up spammy domains, or will even flag up domains for being associated with other flagged parts of the web. Those are features WebWise does not boast, despite being able to "see all of the internet".
