[QUOTE="thewul, post: 786264, member: 3384"] Fabian, Up front: great job, many thanks, I installed the extension. I am sure this valuable will make surfing on Internet even more secure. That said, for me, to be honest, the "It appears that Browser Security is not enabled. ..etc" came as a surprise. Huh!? .. Were there any changes to my browser? Have I not been surfing in a not-secure way then? What..? Did I ignore notifications? Where to find additional information? The extension-site that is showing up after clicking on 'Install now' provides a bare minimum on information (1 line). I agree, that is the case with most extensions: they often leave the user with questions like in what way the extension works. As for the Emsisoft extension, a Google search brought me to this site. Your announcement at the top clearly outlines how it works. Allow me to make a[I] positively[/I] meant suggestion. IF... if at all possible, could you then add the 2 paragraphs of your announcement to the extension site? It merely says there 'Blocks dangerous websites that distribute malware and prevents phishing attacks.' Maybe add 'Learn more'to the pop-up, or change 'Install now' into 'Learn more'? After all, users will end up on the extension site either way. Again, just an idea. BTW, heading over to 'Related' I see a number of 'ad blocking' extensions. Take it there are no conflicts with uBlock Origin? Keep up the good work! [/QUOTE]
