Norton Safe Web suggestion

Why can’t you implement Norton Safe Web to image search (like the regular search).  I almost downloaded a virus called Trojan.moo! Luckily Norton caught it.

Thanks for the suggestion Wikipedian - I know it has been considered internally in the past, and I will check with colleagues to make sure it it continues to be considered.

Great idea, Wikipedian.

 

Since you mentioned Trojan.Moo, I thought that you might be interested in reading more on it over here:

You can also read the Microsoft article on the vulnerability the trojan exploits (patched long ago, if you installed the patches pushed out via Windows Update) mentioned in the article above:
