Great...

Yet another 'feature' for McAfee to load onto the top of their quivering pile of bloatware...

Hmm...

Will FastHosts be applying for certification?

My Opinion last year

was that this service was over sold and could not possibly keep up with the number of sites using it now I know it is.

security theatre

you can't verify a site is secure by only using standard automated test tools - sure, they're great for capturing obvious stuff, but to really prove a web service is secure requires a willingness to actually break the service, and a proper audit of the source code by experienced security-aware *independent* programmers.

if these people have, or ever will, issue a kitemark to a service running on any form of windows, then they're charlatans!

SiteAdvisor

... is crap! I have luckily forgotten which website affiliated with McAfee is visited, which tried to covert me into buying some shady "security product" (anti-spyware) by running a "test" from their website - consisting only of JavaScripted events - no real information of any kind was processed - a complete scam! And SiteAdvisor claimed it to be all kosher. I (naturally) filed a report with SiteAdvisor - which apparently was rejected, as it simply disappeared from the system within a couple of weeks.

Needless to say - I abandoned SiteAdvisor shortly after...
