Their homepage takes you to the german addons website, here is a link to the English page

Firefox addon (English page) ---> https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/235796/

Would you like to know which websites are safe and which website you can trust?
The Webutation add-on shows you the reputation of a site with a simple green/yellow/red icon and scan's websites against virus and bad userfeedback.

Here is an example of how it works:

1. The button on Firefox toolbar shows 100 rating for Avinashtech.net



2. Clicking on the button will show more information about the website








PS: Their homepage says "Download Chrome extension" at the top of the page,but shows FF icon, maybe Chrome extension is in development
