McAfee SiteAdvisor Blacklists Reputable Software Company.
Coffeecup Software is a reputable web design software company with an impeccible reputation and a history of complaince with spam rules. They do not manufacture software with adware, spyware or any other known malicious files, so why is McAfee SiteAdvisor saying they do? I was directed to the site by a friend who had received a warning from their McAfee Anti-Virus software that Coffeecup.com is a known threat.

I have just finished installing the site translator plug-in from Simple Thoughts http://blog.taragana.com/ Now this site can be read in 9 different languages. To translate the page simply click on the flag that represents your country. I had recently noticed that this site gets alot of traffic from all over the world and wondered if people from far away places could actually read the information here. I didnt want the information here to be exclusive to one language so I found this great plugin. I am sure the resources here are valuable and applicable globally so I hope this will be helpful to everyone. For anyone else who has a Blog and posts information you really should get this plugin and stop leaving out a good portion of your visitors. Enjoy.

At present, a vast majority of webmasters are designing for IE (Internet Explorer) 6, which is not as W3C standards compliant as is FireFox, Netscape, Safari and Opera.
In my article – “The importance of sound website design & search spiders to Internet Marketers,” I mentioned the importance of a designer being cognizant of the fact that web browser standards are not yet fully harmonized – a web page that looks great in Internet Explorer (6) might look hideous in a Mozilla based browser like FireFox or Netscape.
