Hi
@Prorootect,
JSGuard has no conflict with most of the add-ons outhere.
It works only checking on-line malicious "java scripts" (it is a kind of mini NoScript filter).
If you have UMatrix, or UBlock or similar, all they will block scripts. It is your first security layer in the browser.
Also, they will block ads, trackers and 90% of the on-line garbage (even without any hosts file).
The problem is that time to time users need to unblock webpages. So JSGuard is needed, for detecting malicious java-scripts in unblocked webpages. Is the second layer.
However, JSGuard doesn't detect virus, malware and many other malicious URLs.
So, an extra Antivirus/Malware is needed. The problem is that Antivirus/Malware are designed to work with the entire computer, not specifically with browsers or on-line dangers. So, there we need this kind of add-ons like BDTL, or Malwarebytes, Avira, Avast, Qihoo etc, working specifically with browsers (third layer).
You can see there is no conflict, UMatrix + JSGuard + Antivirus/Malware add-on + Computer Antivirus/Malware... all of them are needed, are different, no overlap, no redundancy etc... it is a security combo designed for different functions/situations.
Some people argues that 1 antivirus is enough.
This is true... only depending on the user profile/needs.
Hard-users will need more than an antivirus.
In my tests, what JSGuard catched, the other didn't catch. The same for Antivirus/Malware add-on (for example, what BDTL add-on catches, BDAntivirus didn't catch.
For the Antivirus/Malware add-on, I chose BDTL because in my tests appeared better detecting the newest/latest malicious URLs.
And I preferred it, just because I have Comodo Firewall/CruelSister' settings as my computer Antivirus/Malware... it is binary, it stops every unknown/untrusted process.
So, I don't need "signature database" software. I prefer more Heuristics/BehaviorAnalysis software.
JSGuard falls in this same logic, because it doesn't use signature database. I extended my answer to you, in order to explain that UMatrix + JSGuard + BDTL + CF, all are part of my personal security combo, following my individual logic.
In brief, every user has his own profile, his own needs, his own security combo etc. In my opinion, the question here is not which software brand is better or worst, but which combo each user has in relation with his profile/needs. Also, a balance between security/performance is important (I don't like security software impacting system performance).
In conclusion, this explain why some software are preferred to other, and why different users prefer different software.
