Best tool. Love FMHY and their contribution in keeping it real, and now this tool is beautiful. Super user-friendly, doesn't cause your browser to lag, and effectively identifies dubious content before you click. Definitely use it if you hang out on forums with lots of shared links.

Good idea, but blocks a safe site due to drama between sites rather than the presence of malware that's harmful to users.
