CallingID for the Internet
By CallingID
CallingID safe browsing toolbar automatically shows whether sites visited are real and safe to login, submit personal information to or deal with. It displays the site owner''s name and physical address and a risk indication for safe e-commerce and online banking. CallingID checks if the site owner is actively conducting business. Problems like phishing, site that hides owner identity or has any security problem is automatically detected. CallingID''s unique use of 54 different verification tests to evaluate web sites provides the highest level of protection. When any of these tests fail, the user is urged to rethink his/her intention to submit personal information, username, password and credit card number, or to place an order from that site. It summarizes the results of the tests in a simple indication to help the user decide whether to proceed. CallingID provides added value beyond the protection - whenever you visit a site you automatically see who owns it, and where its owner is located. This information is particularly useful when visiting new sites and deciding if they are real and whether to trust the provided information.

These include add on Toolbars, Dialers, so-called browser helpers, browser hijackers, key loggers and third party Cookie readers. All of these send back personal information about ou''re using and which web sites you go to. Many even send back all the email addresses in your address book that they then use for Spamming. Generally speaking, an ActiveX ntrol can be designed to retrieve anything from you PC and send it back to the site that installed it. There are a few Spyware blockers but most must run all the time to enable blocking using up your PC''s valuable system resources. Using Spyware Inoculator, the only time you need to open the program is to activate the blocked entries or to check for database updates. The rest of the time it does not need to be running and you can feel safe knowing the Spyware listed in the database cannot be installed.
