[QUOTE="Gandalf_The_Grey, post: 975263, member: 52096"] I found (when using a second opinion scanner) that because I use file history as backup solution that the malicious files blocked by SmartScreen were also present in the file history backups. If you use Disk Cleanup to clean your system including file history before doing a backup, they are no longer present. So, it depends on your config. If you don't use file history or clean file history regularly it is not a problem. When we tested extensions with [USER=51905]@Evjl's Rain[/USER] I saw the same behavior with Emsisoft Browser Security, but not with for example Bitdefender TrafficLight. [/QUOTE]
