It'd be a very good idea to add the info on logging out on http://www.mywot.com/en/forum/6058-how-to-log-out to this Wiki and to the support pages to help dispel rumors that WOT is spyware. Even those directions don't actually explain what to do, and the setting even has a different name nowadays. Most users will be very suspicious if they discover how difficult it is to log out of mywot.com and how well "hidden" the settings are: Tools < WOT < settings < advanced < Log in automatically to mywot.com and enable features that require the add-on (recommended).

In addition, the choice "Log out" or "Sign out" should always be available on any website, not just mywot.com, and the lack of such an easily visible logout link (which as a verb should be spelled "log out") should be an important criterion that WOT uses to decide if a site is safe to use. eBay, for example, is very dangerous because most users do not know how to sign out if they put a check mark into "Keep me signed in for today." Even clicking on "not you?" in eBay does not log you out! --Espoo 20:07, 14 August 2010 (UTC)

I totally agree with Espoo about this. For instance, given a rating page for a site, at the moment what I need to is to reach two goals: - obtain, the page 'without my login name', so I could print and give it (to show) to the site owner - obtain the page like a standard computer user 'without Wot plugin' could see it, given the address.

So I thinked that the only way to do this was to log-out from Wot. It emerged that, even by following the guidelines in the previous link, simply i COULD'N log out from Wot in ANY manner. Even turning off the automatic login would not let me out anyway. I have not seen any blue icon (as stated), and reloading any Wot pages keep showing "Welcome BertIt64" on top. Maybe there's some other thing I need to do, as closing the whole browser? Tanks --Bert64it 10:33, 8 September 2011 (UTC)
