Live Search Webmaster Tools Detects Malware [blogs.msdn.com]

Today we're expanding our toolkit with two important updates to Webmaster Center: the ability to detect malware on your site and the sites you link to, plus a greatly simplified authentication process that makes accessing our tools much easier. Together these updates help improve your site performance for Live Search, and protect you and your customers from inadvertent exposure to malware.

The tools are here [webmaster.live.com...]

Interesting - I've got 5 green boxes for domain score, and all my pages have 5 green boxes for page scores. I guess that's about as "authoritative" as you get w/ Live Search. Heck, that was easy ;)

I'm having a hard time finding a backlink that doesn't have five green boxes. Even social bookmarking links get five boxes here. So much for taking that seriously.

5 green boxes are basically zero - look for backlinks with Bill Gate's face hit with a cream pie - 5 of those means top notch backlink ;)

I just downloaded our backlinks and it seems 5 is NOT the norm. It shows the value of all the sites that are linking to you as well.
