There is an add-on in firefox. It will help you to identify...
--> Harmful Websites
--> Fake Advertisemnts
--> Virus Spreading websites
It is 'WOT', you can get it from 'tools -> Add-ons' in firefox. By colour, it'll show you the trustfulness of the site
Green - You can trust it
Yellow - Trustfulness is unknown
Red - Suspicious site
Even, when you are searching in Google, it'll show you the state of each site by different colours
It'll not stop by just showing the colours. By mistake if you are trying to visit a suspicious site, it'll show you a warning message as shown below.
Some more firefox add-ons:
1.AdBlock Plus - To get eascaped from Ads
2.Read it later - It ll save you the web pages. you can read it later (even in offline)
3. DownThem All - for Accelerated Download.
Some other Add-ons also there in firefox, like Web2pdf converter, Youtube downloader etc., You search and install them based on your needs.
Actually Ubuntu users needn't worry about the 'virus' sites. Because 99.99% of them are especially for windows. :-)
