Scare results from misjudgement entering dodgy site (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

terrorise

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'scare' is the definition.
(I know that terrorise is a more specific form of the action scare)

'misjudgement entering dodgy site' is the wordplay.
'misjudgement' becomes 'error' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'entering' indicates putting letters inside.
'dodgy' is an anagram indicator (a dodgy or wrong order of the letters).
'site' anagrammed gives 'tise'.
'error' put within 'tise' is 'TERRORISE'.

'results from' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for terrorise that I've seen before include "Panic" , "Spook" , "Browbeat, bully" , "generate fear" , "Oppress by fear" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
