[QUOTE="Decopi, post: 725711, member: 67091"] Hi [USER=51905]@Evjl's Rain[/USER] ! I did now a very quick informal test, using your hosts files combo for UMatrix/UBlock. I compared UBlock, Bitdefender, Avira, Malwarebytes, Safebrowsing google, Netcraft and Norton. Each one in a different separate browser (Firefox). For phishing... 100% agree with you that Netcraft and Safebrowsing google are the best. Norton was the worst. For malware... I got results very different from yours. Norton was a complete disaster. The worst. In your tests was the best. Bitdefender also was very bad. Malwarebytes was the best in my tests for malware. My conclusion is not that you are right or wrong. I believe there is a problem with our tests. I believe that different samples and different URLs, always will show different test results. Even same source of samples, will give different test results for same add-on, for example on different sample dates. Also as you mentioned in your comment, even same source of samples, and same URL or sample, might give different test results because links change every hour. There is a problem with the test methodology (at least, with my methodology). I need to think in another different way to test these add-ons. I will try to do that next week. Cheers [/QUOTE]
