by BobbyPhoenix, 7 years agoGreat to see this finally updated. I like the new features, but the pause download when sending to VirusTotal doesn't work. On every attempt I tried the download would cancel, and not resume. That's the only gripe I have right now, so I turned that option off until an update fixes it hopefully.

- Rated 1 out of 5by DnvnSmth, a month agoPlease just make this available on Android, I'll change this to a 5 star immediately
- Rated 1 out of 5by Remi, a month agoEdit: it happened. Send to VirusTotal prompt failed when I tried to scan an epub file. I donwloaded then sent to Virustotal from my PC and there was a detection. It better be a false positive. I can no longer trust VirusTotal to protect my computer
It was a life saver when it worked but now it simply cancels my download half the time and doesn't even try to scan the file
Some months ago it would turn out upon inspection that I pressed "download" in a private window but the link to the scan results only appeared if I opened a regular window. Inconvenient but technically still worked
Lately it doesn't show the scan prompt or the link in any window I open, in 50% of the cases. At least it can scan links
And yes, I can still scan the file after downloading it but I'd rather not risk my computer's health (Edit: lol should haave listened to myself. Never again) - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15809774, 6 months ago

- Rated 3 out of 5by RokeJulianLockhart, a year agoLink introspection (when API key is added) breaks comments on Amazon wishlist entries by inserting HTML in comment area. No way to retroactively upload file, nor see upload history. VT file upload auth prompts are considered to originate from visited site, and thus can be subject to "Don't allow from this site" option on per-site basis, reducing security. Need instead to originate from extension.

- Rated 3 out of 5by RedPanda, a year agoNeat addon for faster checking links and downloads with VT. Sadly there is currently a bug that breaks some websites when this addon is installed (for ex.: paypal sign-in not working). Also using this addon besides script-blocking addons (for ex.: uBO) breaks some functions of VT4Browsers (for ex.: sidebar). If those things get fixed i gladly will use this addon again but for now i uninstalled it because of the problems described above.

- Rated 2 out of 5by user, 2 years agoThey should create new vendor agnostic URN:SHA-256: protocol or similar instead of search selected hash and 5-6 actions per each hash... 1-3 clicks is clearly better than 5-6...

- Rated 2 out of 5by Ikarisan, 3 years agoUsed this add-on for many years. But the last version (4.0.2) breaks the CSRF check on my "postfixadmin" (3.3.11) site. After sending the login credentials I get "Invalid token! (CSRF check failed)". As soon as I disable VT4Browsers the login works again.
