    Found this directory and has been marked by Yahoo as dangerous:

    Directories Directory
    Warning: Dangerous Downloads
    [ details ] Web Directory ThisIsOurYear (11 visits) ... Open Links (5 visits) Help build the most comprehensive human-reviewed ...

    www.directory.portalit.net/web-gallery/.../internet/directories


    seems to be a directory previously mentioned on many lists, but now Yahoo thinks is dangerous...

    About the same number of posts as you then. Actually, I started less than 10 threads myself :rolleyes:

    I don't have any issues, my sites are doing fine, I don't beg for secrets or tips - or stuff like that. I sleep very well at night providng real help to many thousands every single month via my sites - many thousands and make good money, but I don't do it for the money, and that's the big difference, and probably why I'm taken seriously by real companies, and get that money in the first place!

    Chasing submit fees is easy - anybody can do that, and could do it in my sleep and make 500 times each year what you guys make, no problem.

    Except I have morals :rolleyes:

    This is a typical scaremongering post from a naive Web newbie which can be found on forums everywhere. If you're really interested in privacy and security I highly recommend spending some time on these forums:

    I search for portal sites probably too much for my own good, and was checking some old links, and followed some more links, and found that url.


    And compared to these guys I'm an expert, with 5 quals in Info Technology - something that Syted don't have.

    I also run 2 search engines and 2 directories plus a forum - so you can bet I'm damn hot. Links and Publishing is my business, also took a GNVQ in Business and Business Admin quals.

    Associate of the Institute of Management. Newbie? yeah right :rolleyes:

    Perhaps next time you could use all of these qualifications to put together a more complete report rather than just relying upon one source of information.

    For example AVG Internet Security scanned the web site on the 8th of July and certified it as being safe. Compete.com has the web site marked as Trusted based on community history and partner input.

    Google doesn't have anything listed for this site when searching for it and they are usually the fastest to pick up any malware or bad downloads.

    Yet you chose to follow just the one source and didn't provide an accurate working link to it.

    I appreciate what you may be trying to do, but if you want to do it then you need to do it properly.

    As for damn hot, yeah yeah, so you keep saying.
