Version: Netcraft Toolbar 1.6.2
"Great tool, but slows down browsing."
Pros: Its free.
Provides a layer or protection that you don't get with antispyware programs, antivirus programs, firewalls or spywareblaster...that being AntiPhishing.
Brings an AntiPhishing filter to IE6.
The name is synonymous with internet safety/security.
Cons: Slows down internet browsing.
Doesn't do anything but provide ratings from Netcraft's website.
Search bar only searches Netcraft's site.
A lot of the ratings it provides are way off. A lot of false positives. Says some sites are bad when they are perfectly safe.

Version: Netcraft Toolbar 1.6.2
"Error results - I had to remove it"
Pros: When a toolbar provide misleading results it should be avoided
Cons: It shows the owner of the server - not the owner of the site. Both the name and the location are wrong when the site belongs to one company and is hosted at a different company, sometimes in a different country.

Version: Netcraft Toolbar 1.6.2
"Displays incorrect information"
Pros: Fast and free
Cons: Shows the server owner not the site owner so if a scammer creates a phishing site in a reputable server (geocities) Netcraft says it's Legit!
Try CallingID Toolbar instead.
