One of two spammy landing sites for FireFox users who attempt to visit a site which is blocked by FireFox's embedded anti-malware solution - users who click on "Find out more" are sent here.
(FireFox uses an anti-malware list maintained by Google, which sometimes mistakenly flags innocent redirection-sites designed to protect user privacy, such as anonym-to and po-st.)
The stopbadware site itself is of questionable value, since it contains no information whatsoever about why a given site was blocked - it's just generic anti-malware information, of no practical value to 99.9% of users.
There's nothing inherently harmful here, but a site that allows itself to be used in this spammy and potentially privacy-breaking way is a site of dubious ethics, at best.

Good URL, an IP address analizer.

Nonprofit that seeks to inform and teach webmasters and endusers the basics of malware avoidance - very useful.

A great site for checking whether or not current websites on-line have been blacklisted, as well as providing information regarding if they have been blacklisted in the past.

Сайт не заслуживает доверия. Чёрный список не обновляется. Мой сайт он определяет как вредоносный, хотя уже больше месяца Google снял "чёрную метку" с сайта. Вывод простой - админ не хочет работать, а сайт только пугает людей своими предупреждениями.
P.S. На stopbadware.org вводишь свой сайт в поиск и там в базе данных ничего не находят и просят подождать какое-то время. Это происходит ежедневно.
Сайт - ОТСТОЙ!!!

Alors que WOT pourrait suffire, le fameux stopbadware déréférence de Google des sites de téléchargement non pas parce qu'il contient des "badwares" mais parce que le DDL serait interdit. Stopbadware est badware à lui tout seul. Et WOT ou un fichier hosts me suffit pour juger de la qualité d'un site. Mais qu'on m'empêche d'y accéder, non mais !

After getting definetively false positives in Firefox and clicking ignore http://www.stopbadware.org pops up every time, doesnt matter how often I click "ignore" and "this isn't a attacking website".
Needed to disable the attack site warnings in Firefox to get rid of this shit. This is anyway recommended because of privacy issues: Firefox is sending informations to stopbadware.org, so this organisation can collect your browser sessions better than every tracking cookie because every click in your browser goes first to stopbadware.org so they will know everything about you! Think about it!
