[QUOTE="Windows_Security, post: 792474, member: 50782"] The browser extensions rehab program is working well, therefore some food for thought Without any security extensions Chrome would have passes with flying colours just using these two flags: [ATTACH=full]206639[/ATTACH] Also the CS test of Emsisoft Browser Protection oonly HTTP links are used, so these two settings would also provided a 100% Malware link (drive by/download) protection of unsafe (executable) content and the browser would have shown an explicit red warning (Not Secure) sign in the URL address bar [ATTACH=full]206641[/ATTACH] Add a simpel content rule to block scripts from HTTP://* and those malware/phishing website are paralyzed (no need for uBlock third party blocking). All trustworthy government/financial/shopping websites have HTTPS connections. So when <> script blocked sign appears in the address bar, you should leave it as is, unless you are absolutely sure it is a safe website (e.g. with okla speed test for example). [ATTACH=full]206642[/ATTACH] You could enable OKLA speedtest or leave it as blocked, because there enough alternatives running from HTTPS (e.g. fast.com or most likely the OKLA speedtest clone of your ISP/Telco/Cable company).
