Publisher's description of SiteHound for Firefox
From Firetrust:SiteHound for Firefox protects you and your computer from phasing, scams, spyware, adware, security risks, viruses, and objectionable content while you surf the Web. SiteHound is a prevention tool to stop you getting infected or being vulnerable to Internet threats in the first place.
With SiteHound, when you browse the Internet, you're shown a warning page every time you go to a site, which is a known scam, potentially loads viruses or spyware on to your computer, has questionable content or anything you would not consider reasonable. You are only warned about the dangers of the site, but not actually prevented from visiting the site if you want to visit it. Version 2 includes speed improvements, link preview and warning, new look.

Version: SiteHound for Firefox 2
Pros: Good solid protection, Sitehound blocks sites before you even reach them.
Cons: Starting up your browser takes longer because Sitehound is starting up/checking for updates
Also adds a toolbar to your browser - but is easily removed
In the free version you get too many messages in places saying that if you register (and pay) you get extra options and features
