Nice, my blog is clean.
Great! Trung Congrats!!! Your blog is safe.
I usually hover my mouse over the link and look where it is that its pointing at. Visiting a site and checking the link every time before clicking on any link can get a bit tedious. Also there are plugins that will do it for you. There’s this plugin “web of trust” for firefox that scans all the links that are there on the web page and marks the untrustworthy one’s as red. I used it for some weeks a year back and it was pretty good.

Amrik I have mention the same in above article.

Always a good idea, I like that Bit.ly lets you add a + to link to check stats, integrity and Twitter is pretty good about showing link expanded. I find that tinyurl is the most common spam link of them all now, but you should always know where a link ends up before you click on it and if you don’t trust the site do some research. 30 seconds of extra research is worth more than the time it takes to clean your computer of a possible trojan or virus.
Hi, Justin
Yes, you are right. “30 seconds of extra research is worth more than the time it takes to clean your computer of a possible trojan or virus”.

There is some problem with my laptop Whenever i open any site, that may be google.com , everytime it shows that The Page has some insecure content. What should i do?
Hi, Sanjib
The problem you have mention is sometime because of “https:\” (i.e. ‘s’ should not be there in ‘https’ but this occur only in chrome but there is no issue in that your link is safe. Even though if you don’t want to see the popup again then you can change your browser.
Thanks for being here!
