[QUOTE="Windows_Security, post: 792951, member: 50782"] [USER=51905]@Evjl's Rain[/USER] I do appreciate your efforts and tests. I sincerely think it will provide new insights. When it is so easy to protect oneself from malware (drive-by) downloads from HTTP websites, this point of view should be taken into consideration (average PC-user does not play with software but simply uses it), maybe not for power users testing software, but for people helping 'Average Joe/Jane' PC-users. E.g when Bitdefender Traffic light blocks 17 out of 30 and Malware Bytes blocking blocks 28 out of 30, it might make sense to replace Bitdefender with Malware Bytes extension. When you only had one sample originating from HTTPS and that one was blocked by Bitdefender Trafficlight and missed by Malware Bytes this fact would change the perspective on what extension to choose (advise) for average users.
