    McAfee SiteAdvisor Scam

    McAfee SiteAdvisor blackballed my SpywareInfo.com website and I'm mad as hell. So I created a blog SiteAdvisorClassAction.com. Post if you've had similar experiences.

    Yes, they decide your site is a security risky based on negative reviews. The more sites they label a security risk the better. Pay them exorbitant fees for their McAfee Secure service and your erroneously labeled red security risk will get switched to safe green.

    Oddly enough they proudly display their bot reviewers here http://www.siteadvisor.com/analysis/reviewercentral/

    Their top bot reviewer was over 2 million reviews. They must be cleaning up a lot of bogus reviews.

    Norton actually scans the site http://safeweb.norton.com/report/sho...pywareinfo.com

    Sorry about your situation.
    However, you still promote McAfee (Not Norton) on your site?

    That's part of the irony. They blackballed an affiliate.

    McAfee system is total crap. Their system also shows domains as "dangerous/malicous", which are run by big companies like Microsoft, Apple etc. They simply try to scare people into buying more of their stupid , useless porducts.
