Want to know if a site is safe before you enter your credit card details? Symantec makers of Norton AntiVirus have recently created a website, Norton Safe Web, which allows you to enter a websites URL and receive a report on the safety of that site.
The Norton Safe Web site in still in Beta (not finished yet) so when searching for some websites it will come up with an Untested icon, but this does not mean that the site is unsafe only that Norton has no information on that site yet. If the site has been tested it will receive either a Safe, Caution, or Warning icon.
You can also download the Norton Safe Web Beta as a toolbar.
