[QUOTE="SeriousHoax, post: 1029737, member: 78686"] Actually, this is not correct. Avast extension is weak of course but the AV is much stronger against both malicious and phishing sites. The AV is always up-to-date on everything and can also detect scripts injected on websites for malicious/phishing attempts that the extension cannot do. The extension has some extra features which are unnecessary IMO, but they added the option to auto-hide cookies in the extension after they acquired the "I don't care about cookies" extension. Edit: Avast & AVG used to redirect users to their extension page the first time a browser was opened after installing the product. But they don't do that anymore. [/QUOTE]
