    advisory circles

    how can i use WOT

    but

    NOT have the lil good/bad circles that show up in everything including my emails and break them or distort them.

    basically how do i hide the little cirlces? and still have the WOT service?

    thanks

    and please no obvious comments regarding security vs looks.

    Re: advisory circles

    Go to the add-on settings at http://www.mywot.com/settings/searching . From there uncheck your email provider e.g. Gmail or Yahoo. Don't forget to push "Apply" button on the bottom of the settings page.

      @ Timo re: advisory circles

      your suggestion disables the "service"

      The question is:
      how do i hide the little cirlces? and still have the WOT service?

      I am unaware of the ability to "disable WOT graphics" while still enjoying the protection WOT offers.

        If one disables all the searching options then the add-on won't add any safety icons to any web page. However, the add-on works otherwise normally e.g. you can rate and see sites rating when entering the site.

    thanks for your

    thanks for your suggestions!!

    so even on "mywot" >settings > searching
    in the "Select when ratings are shown" box, if i disabled the gmail checkmark,
    i would no longer have security for gmail?

    Am i understanding this correctly?

      Re: thanks for your

      Then the add-on won't add safety icons on your emails. I could be said that your email is not "secure", but WOT is still working normally when you enter the page. It will warn you and you can rate sites.

        makes sense

        ok well im already ultra paranoid about unknown links anyway. I consider myself a safe surfer. have locked down wireless network, etc
        My g/f on the other hand, not so safe. We share a PC
        She's not too interested in learning some basic net safety things. So it falls on me...lol
        we both use gmail.. so im just trying to make WOT kinda "invisble"

        thanks again
