- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14745692, 6 years agoIt was working well for me, but recently I started getting broken image links on various Google sites (e.g., Google Photos, Google News, Gmail). Uninstalling the extension was the only way to restore the images.
EDIT 4/10/2019 - Issues with Google sites resolved! - Rated 4 out of 5by Dave-H, 6 years agoA very good add-on, but note that it only works with the most recent versions of Firefox, which is not stated on its download page.
It will not work with Firefox 59 ESR for instance, although it appears to install normally.
It looks fine, but will not actually do anything apart from sit in the add-ons bar icons! - Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14402262, 6 years agoPreventing the various links on hellotech.com from functioning. Other adblockers are not having the same issue.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Thomas James "Tom" Seymour, 6 years agoPretty good for an experimental add-on. I can't wait to see how much better Malwarebytes for Firefox will get once it becomes a stable add-on!

- Rated 4 out of 5by bigfella, 7 years agoI'd rate this as 3.5 out of five. I like to watch online movies and find that a couple of sites have these additional pages that pop up (gambling, games etc), in the past my other add ons would block these pages. This extension doesn't , it does show one of my sites as a riskware site, even though it is one I haven't had problems with. What it does do well is speed up access to pages, something new that I didn't have in the past when on a site and moving through pages is Favicon pages appearing when I click on the next page number. It is a beta version so it is a work in progress.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 13316154, 7 years agothis looks to be an excellent extension. however whitelisting a couple of sites for ads/clickbaits has not stopped their anti-adware software from preventing access and viewing.
e.g. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/local/wp/2018/08/08/paul-manafort-trial-day-7-live-coverage/?utm_term=.4de6c6c9bc28
https://www.thewindowsclub.com/windows-10-update-error-0x8024a105
looks like their particular ad detectors aren't satisfied with being whitelisted. tried adding for malware/scams also but this didn't help, at least for the windows club site above.
is there a URL for bug reporting?
thanks, and looking forward to update... - Rated 4 out of 5by KevinYu0504, 7 years agoDear developer ,
This is a great extension , but i had some question for it , hope can get the answer from official developer .
1.
I already had Malwarebytes Premium on my system , should i need to install this extension ?
2.
I understand this extension still in beta , but i hope this extension can support more different language ASAP ,
did Malwarebytes had any plan to support more language in the future ?
Thanks .
---------------
update :
Thanks for answer ,
Indeed i hope the extension can support the language for Chinese-Traditional ,
because this is a very useful extension , but most of Chinese user are not good at reading English ,
if the extension can support their main language , it will be more easy to recommend .
Thanks for reply :)Developer response
posted 7 years agoMalwarebytes premium offers our best protection. Extension protects you from Ads, Trackers and Clickbait.
I would recommend keeping both.
There will be support for more languages in future, are you looking for any particular one? - Rated 4 out of 5by Juanka Hula, 7 years agoNice addon. Is this addon working like a normal adblocker with predefined subscriptions or does it use custom filterlists/ other methods?
- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 14140604, 7 years agoI like the potential for this extension. It works well because it's blocked bad pup sites. It's also simple and easy to use. The only ongoing issue is every time I CLOSE Firefox, it crashes the browser. "Process error". (It leaves open an old FF process running in the background) I know it's the extension because when I uninstall it...the browser no longer crashes on closing. I will continue to use this extension because it seems lightweight and works, but the crashes are just an inconvenience.
