Comodo's TrustToolbar relies on a whitelist of known trusted sites identified by
"the internet's only identity assurance infrastructure",
idauthority.com, which researches the companies behind sites.
Phishing.net's Clear Search Anti-Phishing.
Beware of posers. Memory Watcher, which claims to help you watch your memory,
actually installs the Peper Trojan. Hidden in the middle of its disclosure:
Among the commercial for-fee software:
None of these program could detect/clean the IE hijacker which directs all
web pages to (spotresults.com, azjmp.com).
The pernicious pest reinstalls
DSO (Data Shared Objects) after Spybot attempts to delete it.
This is because the pest exists in memory
The
DSOStop2.exe fixes the registry keys for signed and unsigned ActiveX pests.
After boot up in Safe Mode to delete these hidden files:
The
uninstall for the peper trojan must be run while you're online.
Some viruses change their name. Search for file name *cpy.dll in Windows/System32. But this has to be done in Safe Mode with no Internet connection.

When I tried to open an Adobe Acrobat (.pdf) file, I got “Page blocked” instead. But instead of turning off the program entirely to get to a page it blocks (very dangerous), I figured out how to better control the program. I change Zone Alarm configuration temporarily.
In the Privacy tab, click Custom in the Mobile Code Control section. I uncheck “Block mime-type integrated objects”. This is because Adobe acrobat pdf files are a special mime-type.

Firefox 3 is worth the extra download/install effot becoming of its speed, and especially extensions:
Beware that extensions can cause other Javascript apps
(especially Google Apps) to behave strangely.
Download Firefox extensions, which have .xpi file extentions.
Mozilla requires developer attention with each new major version.
So extensions can die from developer neglect.
If your extension becomes obsolte, version compatibility can be forced using "Nightly Tester Tools" FF-Addon or manaully this way:
The <canvas< tag by HTML 5 will cause a major revolution in the web and in testing web applications. It replaces flash video plug-ins by enabling JavaScript to draw vector graphics.
