მიმომხილველი JD6T_P6, 8 თვის წინI'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.

- 3 შეფასება 5-დანმიმომხილველი Firefox-ის მომხმარებელი 16351663, 19 დღის წინI'm running the latest version of FireFox. This has warned me about entering two or three potentially malicious sites, but I get multiple occurences daily of pages virtually freezing and a warning pop-up that the plugin is slowing FF down. I've therefore disabled it for now. When I next remember, I'll give it another try to see if the issue (if there is one) has been addressed.
Edit: VERY impressed by the speed of Malwarebytes' response! Have added a diary reminder to turn it back on in a week's time to see if the fix has been implemented. In the meantime, I'll try very hard not to visit sites I shouldn't. :-)შემმუშავებლის პასუხი

This should resolve the issue. - 3 შეფასება 5-დანმიმომხილველი Firefox-ის მომხმარებელი 18201410, 20 დღის წინThis extensions been good for quite some time now, but recently, due to the bug that's been slowing down my browser, it's starting to get unbearable, I upload content on YouTube and browse the internet, and constantly getting a popup from my browser that its being slown down for long periods of time every 5 - 10 minutes is pretty annoying.
Until this bug's fixed, I do not recommend this extension to anyone, despite how good its features are.შემმუშავებლის პასუხი

I am using Firefox, and lately I have been getting the error message that Malwarebytes Browser Guard is slowing down my browser and that I should consider removing it. Not good.

- 2 შეფასება 5-დანმიმომხილველი TheGuiltyJoker, 23 დღის წინI've been using this for a few months now, and I love that it blocks and alerts me to unsafe websites.
However, recently I've been getting alerts from FireFox telling me that this addon is slowing down the browser.
I have no idea why this is happening as I haven't changed anything, so I don't know if it's an update that has caused it, but it needs to be investigated otherwise it's likely people could disable the addon.შემმუშავებლის პასუხი

In fact, I am now paying for something that breaks functionality across my browsers. I have no other extensions installed, and everything was fine before the update.
So I am paying for a service that actually causes vulnerabilities... Pretty unethical. I'll give it a few days for a hotfix... But there are other options that actually work so... Please fix this... I hate paying for things that actually make me unsafe...შემმუშავებლის პასუხი
