Malwarebytes Web Protection Review
Malwarebytes Web Protection is the free version of Malwarebytes‘ real-time anti-virus program that aims to block browser hijackers, phishing webpages and scam websites, as well as other bad content while you browse the Internet. It also blocks annoying ads and stops cryptocurrency miners in the browser (unwanted mining of cryptocurrency), and kicks out other harmful content.
The extension is simple to use. There are no complicated options, and there are very few notifications that disrupt browsing. It’s the world’s first and only browser extension that stops and detects scams involving tech support, which are among the most prevalent online dangers. It also speeds up the display of web pages and blocks trackers that are able to track users and then bombard them with annoying ads and helps you to avoid malware downloads by blocking sites that contain it.
However, it does not include the additional features that are available in other competitors, including firewalls, system tune-up tools, a password manager, or parental controls. Furthermore, it doesn’t provide long-term plans like Bitdefender or Kaspersky which can save you money over the long term.
