- Rated 3 out of 5by Jack, 6 months agoGood but, the last update stopped on Dec 15, 2023? But the official website shows that there are newer versions... Why?

- Rated 3 out of 5by AMCarter3, a year agoI installed Malwarebytes Browser Guard on Firefox and Safari many months ago. It appears to work well in Firefox. However, in Safari the question is... how do I update it to the current version? There are 4 Browser Guard extensions added to Safari Settings. All 4 are ver 2.0.1, yet the App Store indicates the latest version released 10/25/23 is ver 2.1... and after opening it, it claims the new version is installed and active. However, it was NOT installed. The version in my Applications folder is still ver 2.0.1. This is very confusing.

- Rated 3 out of 5by FoxInBox, a year agoПользуюсь расширением несколько лет. Около месяца назад расширение стало сильно тормозить загрузку страниц. Я сбросил настройки расширения к заводским. Это частично помогло. Загрузка страниц всё равно занимает в 2-3 раза больше времени при включенном расширении. Надеюсь, что проблема будет исправлена.
I've been using the extension for several years. About a month ago, the extension began to eriously slow down page loading. I reset the extension to factory settings. This partially helped. Page loading still takes 2-3 times longer with the extension enabled. Hope the problem gets fixed.Developer response

Мне пришлось отказаться от использования этого расширения до момента его наилучшей оптимизации! Optimise the product better!

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 15145394, 2 years agoOk, but blocks images on some news websites. I don't see a way to white list sites, so I disable the extension. I'd give a higher rating if I could find out how to white list selected domains.

was working fine until this morning, not sure why it's being this way now.Developer response

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 16599150, 3 years agoThe "did you copy something?" notice is extremely annoying. It pops up every time I copy text from a site I use for work and they stack! I hate closing out 10+ of those stacked on top of each other when I finish writing just one of dozens of emails for the day. From what I saw online and from playing with extension settings there IS NO WAY TO TURN IT OFF. Uninstalling until this is corrected.

If you click on the extension icon and disable scam protection from that site, you will no longer see that notice.
