After installing the add-on, the links from search engines are tagged with extra symbols showing whether the site's "reputation" level. Very simple to understand, red means potentially bad site and green means good site.

WOT is available for both Firefox and IE . If you choose to use it, remember to contribute back to the project back by helping to rate sites as you visit them.
