  CallingID for the Internet

  Good addition to your overall security

  Pros: Sits unobrusively in your toolbar until a loud noise and a red visual indication says site owner hides identity. Then be wary of that site unless you "know" it's safe.

  Cons: When first going to banking sites, it can take a few minutes to verify that the site is safe. (After all it is putting the site through 54 tests of authenticity.) I 'd like to know what those tests are, but if it works, who cares?
