Basic WOT Security Scorecard with no ratings

The scorecard contains everything you need to know about a website, domain name, or IP.

Scorecard colors

To help bridge across language barriers, colors are used for immediate identification of the overall trustworthiness (safety) of a website. The color range is:

Reputation Color and symbol Description
Excellent 16 excellent.png = dark green This site has a good reputation and the community considers it a safe and pleasant experience.
Good 16 good.png = light green
Unsatisfactory 16 unsatisfactory.png = yellow Cautionary advisory, unsatisfactory or mixed ratings.
Poor 16 poor.png = orange This site has a poor reputation and the add-on will bring up the warning screen, or blocking screen, when settings are at their default values. If you choose to proceed, do so with a high amount of care and concern; you have been warned.
Very poor 16 verypoor.png = red
Unrated 16 unrated.png = grey There are not enough ratings to compute a reputation for this website, as referenced by the example scorecard provided
