    The Mozilla corporation has decided to partner with this site and Google to "protect" you from pages which they have arbitrarily deemed "bad". Sites blocked? A mac mod site, FFshrine (well-known for hosting video game MP3s), and bdcomics, a blog which offers comic book downloads. Many times the reason offered is simply "Google said this site was bad". Sound corporate yet? Go Google search "google pays mozilla" (lol irony), and you'll find out that the Google corporation pays Mozilla 66 million dollars a year for a prime spot in the Firefox search bar. No thank you. I can protect my PC on my own. And the people who can't? They deserve the spyware they get. Keep the internet free- free of censorship, free of corporate influence, and free of stupid people.

    Great idea! Thanks for the heads-up, Mark. Oh, umm.. I'm not so sure. Featured software 'Evidence Terminator' doesn't show up on Download.com. Any ideas?

    From the page: StopBadware.org is a "Neighborhood Watch" campaign aimed at fighting badware. We will seek to provide reliable, objective information about downloadable applications in order to help consumers to make better choices about what they download on to their computers. We aim to become a central clearinghouse for research on badware and the bad actors who spread it, and to become a focal point for developing collaborative, community-minded approaches to stopping badware. Harvard Law School's Berkman Center for Internet & Society and Oxford University's Oxford Internet Institute are leading this initiative with the support of several prominent tech companies, including Google, Lenovo, and Sun Microsystems. Consumer Reports WebWatch is serving as an unpaid special advisor. John Palfrey, Executive Director of the Berkman Center and Harvard Clinical Professor of Law, and Jonathan Zittrain, Harvard Law Visiting Professor and Professor of Internet Governance and Regulation at Oxford University, are StopBadware.org co-directors. Supporting them are an advisory board and working group made up of some of the top experts in the field, including Internet pioneers Esther Dyson and Vint Cerf.
