[QUOTE="Evjl's Rain, post: 757499, member: 51905"] sorry for my late reply. I was away from my computer for a while and now I can answer your questions. Hope it's not too late I think they are not aware of this or they might ignore it because Malwarebytes extension speed is acceptable for most people, only the cold browser startup speed is slower. After that, the next startup will be instant. Plus many people have SSD => they can hardly notice it I submitted a thread in MB forum on August 9 but no still reply [URL='https://forums.malwarebytes.com/topic/234742-mb-extension-causing-slow-browser-startup/']MB extension causing slow browser startup[/URL] I don't know it too. Most chrome extensions don't have proper changelog. We should wait for the next version so they might publish the changelog for v1.65 as they did for v1.62 and 1.63. I believe they are just some minor changes yes I have test the default ublock filters against this list and they failed badly. IMO, those useless lists should be disabled because they are outdated, slowly updated and weak these 100 vxvault links are the latest 100 links recently found so they should add something to your protection in overall. The best AVs and extensions still miss some links in the list out of 100, ~60-80 of them are dead links because malware links die very quickly (bandwidth limitation) it's small but powerful, straight to the point hphosts EMD, for example, has >300k entries but most of them are dead links. EMD is still the best malware filter your can add to ublock. hphosts > squidblacklist and vxvault because it's unique unfortunately, all of them are not usable for ublock because they need conversion to be useful. ublock doesn't support these format. Luckily, vxvault is almost the same as malc0de as the latest 20-30 links in malc0de are present in vxvault list. vxvault is even more up-to-date than malc0de. Sometimes, malc0de has <5 links which are not in the vxvault list => not noticeable many people have submitted some very useful lists to ublock github and the developer immediately closed the requests. He ignores and rarely considers any new filter to his default list [/QUOTE]
