    A bad site seems to have forund a way to bypass WOT warnings!

    I just clicked a facebook link to the site http://www.datetheuk.com

    VERY briefly the warning page appears but I do not get the opportunity to close the page or ignore the warning as almost immediately another page appears as though I had clicked to ignore the warning. The yellow warning ring still appears in the address bar.

    I have been using WOT for a very long time and have never come accros anything like this before.

    This site's reputation won't result in a warning with default settings.

    The link probably pointed to some other site, which redirected you to this one. The add-on doesn't stop sites from redirecting you elsewhere unless you turn on blocking from warning settings. The behavior is therefore expected.

    If you have blocking enabled

    If you have blocking enabled and were still not blocked, it might have been because only small number of users might have rated it, or the net rating wouldn't have been powerful enough to block the site. For example, if some new user, rates a site red, it might turn red, but WOT might not issue a warning.

    There should be an option in

    There should be an option in a future version where you can tick it to have it block sites that have bad ratings even though not many people rated them just to be on the safe side.
