Yes, "ON" is the default setting for the Advanced Skimmer Protection feature in Malwarebytes Browser Guard. Therefore, if you do not remember setting it up, it is likely that this setting was enabled by default. However, it is always a good idea to check your settings periodically to ensure that the protection features you require are still enabled.
