McAfee Acquires Web Safety Pioneer SiteAdvisor
Unique Website Rating System Adds New Level of Protection to
McAfee Consumer Services
SANTA CLARA, CALIF., April 5, 2006 McAfee, Inc. (NYSE: MFE) today
announced that it has acquired web safety innovator SiteAdvisor
Inc. The addition of SiteAdvisors vast and growing database of
tested and rated web sites to McAfees comprehensive range of
solutions and services helps redefine the way consumers surf the
Internet, offering an unprecedented level of protection and
confidence as they search, browse and transact online.
As the first company to test and rate, on an ongoing basis, nearly
every site on the Internet, SiteAdvisor is the ultimate consumer
bodyguard, clearly identifying potentially dangerous web sites that
have engaged in social engineering attacks, such as spyware,
adware, spam, browser attacks, and online scams. The easy-to-use
software summarizes these findings with intuitive red, yellow, and
green icons that empower online users to decide what to browse and
what to avoid.

McAfees existing solutions, and we clearly share the same
philosophy on consumer protection, said Bill Kerrigan, executive
vice president of McAfee Consumer. The acquisition of SiteAdvisor
illustrates how McAfee continues to understand and meet the digital
safety and security needs of consumers, just as we did when we
began offering Security as a Service seven years ago.

According to the indictment, Jones would steal various IBM and Penguin computer servers from Verisign's warehouse in Virginia and sell them to Johnson. Johnson would then sell the servers to several individuals, who would sometimes place them for sale on eBay. As a result of this scheme, the indictment alleges that Jones and Johnson caused Verisign to lose more than $120, 000 worth of computer equipment. In the indictment, Jones and Johnson are charged in three counts with causing the interstate transportation of stolen property, namely IBM 330 and 335 servers, in violation of 18 U.S.C.
Microsoft One significant advantage offered by SiteAdvisor is that it
helps consumers gain a new level of safety when they use search
services such as Google, Yahoo! or MSN. SiteAdvisor instantly
displays its safety ratings next to each search result to help
users make informed decisions about which sites they visit. Plus,
as users surf the Internet, a small SiteAdvisor safety button on
their browser toolbar changes color based on SiteAdvisor's safety
rating for each site.
