[QUOTE="Evjl's Rain, post: 740044, member: 51905"] I only used [URL="http://www.squidblacklist.org/downloads/dg-malicious.acl"]www.squidblacklist.org/downloads/dg-malicious.acl[/URL] this is the only thing free and we can use for this test. The others, malicious IP,... are not free and not addable to ublock this would benefit you but I think using an extension should be better and more updated thank you for your reply 2) yes netcraft is one of the kings of phishing. However, phishing is not important for MT users because most people here can spot phishing by just looking at them and phishing links usually don't last very long. Malware blocking is more important 3) Browser performance is indeed important. For me, Norton Safe Web and WDBP are extremely lite, they consume very very little CPU time after 1 hour of browsing. The heaviest should be Avira browser safety -> Malwarebytes -> Bitdefender Avira and MB scan our traffic in realtime, 24/7, that's why they are heavier and consume more CPU Norton, WDBP and BD only scan the website we visit once and then finish. However, BD consumes a lot of CPU although scanning only once 4) Malwarebytes is very good, no doubt. The heuristics is really strong, I admit. It can something the others can't block but in the exchange of some false positives. It blocked 1 of my pdf from downloading but I'm sure it's safe [/QUOTE]
