Link protection on posts from new members

As some of you already noticed from now on links which are being posted by new members will be protected by our link protection system.

After you click on a protected link you will be redirected to a warning page which points at several important hints and comments (maybe warnings) from other members.

Basically this Addon has been implemented for the Newbies, especially those who do not deal with computer security that much.

But the addon should be interesting for the experts too since you can comment on the link which opens discussions about what is malware and what isn't.

Of course you can deactivate that feature. For that just look at the right when you visit a protected link and deactivate the addon at the sidebar.

Well honestly i think this system sucks. If i click on a link i want to be redirected directly to it not over a page, where i have to wait 5 sec. And if i click on a link i always look where it goes, e.g. clicking on some links to imageshack is annoying
