od uživatele JD6T_P6, před 6 měsíciI've been using "Malwarebytes Browser Guard" for a couple of months, and I've noticed a few issues.
There's no doubt it does a great job blocking malicious sites, trackers, scams, etc. But it also slows down the browser when I have several tabs open or when loading more than one tab at the same time. After testing, I noticed a pattern (at least in my case): the more images a website has (Google Maps, ArtStation, Pinterest, etc.), the worse the browser's performance gets. So, I went into the extension's settings and disabled its three main features (Ads/Trackers = Off, Malware = Off, Scams = Off) for each of these sites, but to my surprise, it didn't work—the sites were still slow. I assume that Malwarebytes is still scanning all the links on the site, but the fact that this happens even after disabling those features feels like a big flaw. Hopefully, it's just me not knowing how to use the extension properly, but for now, I had to disable it.
At first, I thought the issue was related to my browser's cache or something similar, so I reset the browser, and that fixed it temporarily. However, once I reinstalled my extensions, the issue came back. After testing them one by one, I found out that the problem was caused by "Malwarebytes Browser Guard."
This wouldn't be such a big deal, but I use the aforementioned pages a lot and at least I think that many users also use Google Maps and from my experience, that's where the issue is the worst.

Except this, it doesn't recognize my premium subscription (device security is installed but it says upgrade to premium)

- Hodnocení: 3 z 5od uživatele Greenstack, před měsícemI love the privacy and security options it gives, but any site that uses ReCaptcha fails to let me log in because the plugin disables and blocks it, so I need to disable the ads/trackers setting for those sites.

- Hodnocení: 4 z 5od uživatele Uživatel Firefoxu - 18925976, před měsícemOverall, it’s good, but I’d like to see more details in the statistics—specifically, the types of malware that have been blocked, not just the numbers.
Also, the 'Access your data for all websites' option is listed as optional, but it’s necessary for the program to work. I know you’ve been pretty transparent about how the data is used, but this does raise some concerns about data security as the company isn’t open-source. - Hodnocení: 1 z 5od uživatele GlennS, před 2 měsíci

- Hodnocení: 3 z 5od uživatele Disaster Area, před 2 měsíciThis add-on is pretty good and helps prevent malware from being downloaded, as well as helps to avoid unsafe websites. However, today it started causing a massive memory leak whenever I opened my browser. My memory utilisation goes from about 40% with the add-on off to staying at 100% with the add-on active and websites will barely load. Hopefully this is fixed soon and I can re-enable the add-on.

- Hodnocení: 1 z 5od uživatele grahamperrin, před 2 měsíciBrowser performance (with many tabs) suffers terribly if both Malware and Scams are switched on in addition to Ads/Trackers. For Malware, and for Scams, global switches are terribly broken: after switching off globally at one tab, I find both features wrongly switched on globally at another tab. I'll gather debug logs and discuss in the forums.
Also, the release notes here at AMO are wildly inconsistent with the release notes at the Malwarebytes website.Odpověď vývojáře
