[QUOTE="Marko :), post: 1124010, member: 39702"] Can someone with a virtual machine test something for me? 1. Open a console in web browser with networking tab 2. Visit a malicious site 3. Check the requests being made by the browser Why? I'm interested if website is being loaded normally until the extension gets an answer or does it wait for the answer from security provider and then decides if the website will open. This matters because if website loads in the background, there's a chance malicious script will be loaded before Osprey gets an answer from security provider. On the other hand, if it waits for the answer to decide if website will load or not, you should see some delay as it needs to check for the answer from external services. And seeing pretty much none of you experiences delays or slowdowns that seems like it's not the case either. [/QUOTE]
