Overview
See Links to Risky Websites at a Glance. Enhance Your Protection from Trend Micro Security Software.
TRICKY NEW THREATS NEVER CEASE Criminals can hide spyware that downloads automatically when you open what seems like a harmless website. Sometimes they put up fraudulent pages in place of legitimate ones to steal sensitive information. Good friends on Facebook, LinkedIn, or Twitter might sometimes share links to untrustworthy sites without even knowing it. CLICK WITH CONFIDENCE After installing the Trend Micro Privacy Scanner, you can easily spot links to risky websites and avoid opening them by mistake. What you don’t click can’t hurt you. HOW DOES IT WORK? Intuitive color-coded safety ratings integrate seamlessly and effortlessly into the results from popular search engines like Google, Bing, Yahoo, and Baidu. The same ratings apply to hyperlinks appearing in messages that you open in Gmail, as well as web-based email services from Microsoft and Yahoo. No matter whether you prefer Facebook, LinkedIn, or Twitter, links posted to all of them automatically receive ratings too. You can also easily audit the privacy settings for your favorite social networks directly from the browser window. The toolbar can even check the settings of the web browser itself to help make sure that you do not reveal too much to untrustworthy websites. If you want to know more about the safety of almost any website linked in a browser window, just hold the cursor still over the hyperlink for a couple of seconds. BY THE WAY Please note that most of these features work only if you have already installed Trend Micro security software to protect the computer. HAVE QUESTIONS?

Not minding the Privacy Check much, but as a link and fraud checker, it seems to work as it should. My only gripe about it is that it is quite visually intrusive about the scanned links due to color labeling it. If ever, I'd like an option to only let ? and X (unidentified and dangerous) icons appear only when links are such, not when it's checked (good site). Also an option to not color-label the link. Edit: ...Oh. Apparently I am using and reviewing on an older and a different version of T... Show more
