[QUOTE="JM Safe, post: 777713, member: 35684"] It is important to know which sites are malicious (malware sites) or phishing. Yes we can upload an address to an online malware scanner but it can happen the malicious site is FUD so it seems it is clean. The most important thing to defend us from phishing is to verify the presence of forms to fill in information. If you don't know the site DO NOT insert any information. Sometimes phishing sites use names SIMILAR to known websites such as Facebook, and the malicious site could be named "Faceboook", if a user doesn't pay attention to the fake name he could insert data to a fake site and get phished! About malware sites obviously download malware (usually also dangerous ransomware threats): in this case is fundamental to surf with a sandboxed browser (I use Chrome with Sandboxie), so the malware if it is downloaded it remains in the sandboxed area and then we can delete it!). If you have other suggestions please write them! Thank you! :) [/QUOTE]
