    Haven't really encountered any big issues with it, it works like expected from what I can see. I've been using it since November 2022 on Firefox and before then on Chromium.

    The extension works most of the time, but every time I go to weather.com, it freaks out and I just keep getting redirected, with the numbers on the icon going up like crazy. I've cleaned my cache, I have the latest version of the extension, so I don't know what the issue is.

    This plugins blocks my own website for phishing for years after using it for a few months, meanwhile my website is clean and I have even checked using other malware detectors and 3rd party scanning tools!!!

    It's slowing down the browser's site loading speed massively. Deactivated.

    Hi there, are you using the latest 2.6.27 version? We solved a lot of the performance issues in this version.
    If you are, can you please reach out at support.malwarebytes.com?

    Anti-garbage designed specifically for the browser itself was long-time needed.
    MB filled the niche quite nicely i'd say. Thank you MB staff.

    It's a good antivirus, but it uses too much ram!

    We have a release pending review by the Mozilla team that addresses this issue. Keep an eye out for 2.6.27.

    MwB Guard slowing down the browser and websites load... and don't know why the extension is using 25.85MB storage size, you should improve the extension to works better and to use less data size.. otherwise is a great extension does exactly what it says and fits nice with the MwB Premium, besides of issues i have with it. :)

    Ever since latest update, when you toggle off the block ads/trackers it still keeps blocking them (this also happens on EDGE too), please update this, it didn't do that until the latest udpate version 2.6.26

    The best of the best! You dont even need to pay to be on the safe side! Thank you sooo much to the malwarebytes team. it blocks everything! even if it gives maybe like 1 in a 200 false positives. It doesn't happen often i can barely remember the extension blocking a good site in the recent days or weeks. Better be safe than sorry right? this one is completely worth it combined with defender and the occasional free mwb trial. get this extension, it's just 1 click away and saves you in many ways while browsing! I would give 6 stars if i could :)
