SiteAdvisor

We test the Web to help keep you safe from spyware, spam, viruses and online scams.

Safety ratings from McAfee SiteAdvisor are based on automated safety tests of Web sites (including of our own site) and are enhanced by feedback from our volunteer reviewers and insights from our own analysts. Here are some examples:

ebay.com : We've tested this site and found it safe to use.

popularscreensavers.com : In our tests, this site promoted downloads that some people consider adware, spyware or other potentially unwanted programs.

kazaa.com : In our tests, we found downloads on this site that some people consider adware, spyware, or other unwanted programs.

McAfee SiteAdvisor warns you before you interact with a dangerous Web site. Traditional security products focus on trying to clean up problems after they occur.

McAfee SiteAdvisor also complements and enhances your existing security software by detecting threats which traditional security products often miss, including spyware attacks, online scams, and sites that spam you.

No. McAfee SiteAdvisor does not accept payment from rated sites, so our ratings are objective and uniformly applied.

The basic version of our software is free of charge. SiteAdvisor Plus is a paid version with additional premium features.

SiteAdvisor for Internet Explorer

How does SiteAdvisor test sites?

SiteAdvisor's engineers built a system of automated robots to test every Web site, download, and e-mail sign-up form on the Web.

Is it safe to use?

Web sites are tested for excessive pop-ups, fraudulent practices, and browser exploits. So far we've tested sites representing more than 95% of worldwide Web traffic.

Is it safe to download?

Downloads are tested for viruses and bundled adware, spyware or other unwanted programs. We've tested more than 2 million to date.

Is it safe to submit?

Sign-up forms are completed using a one-time use e-mail address so any subsequent spam can be tracked. Our bots receive mail from more than 7 million places already.

What do others say?

Feedback from individual users and analysis by SiteAdvisor staff provide insight into the site's current and past practices as well as its corporate affiliations.
