    Thanks for this tip! :thumb: - I already use Ghostery, but it was shocking to see what is (was) going on behind the curtain without my knowledge! :eek: Honestly, Wilders Security Forum is the first website in half an hour that isn't connecting to other sites! :cool:

    Thanks Moonblood, to many credits to me, just google (okay one has to have a little programming/software design knowledge to grasp the benefits), to list Chrome design advantages, or why Chrome processes Javascript and Flash/PDF plugins more safely (flash and pdf containes like javascript both content and code):

    Security features of browsers
    1. Sandbox
    Runs webcontent with Low and even Untrusted Integrity level and restricting calls to other user objects: 1 = Chrome, 2= IE, 3= FF see pic1

    2. Just in time hardening
    Chrome runs JavaScript is compiled directly into machine code. Chrome uses hidden classes in stead the of a dictionary-like data structure for storage (making it easier to offset and use overflow techniques to addres data outside process scope). IE puts a lot off limitations on Javascript, I personally think they have silently implemented the sozzle and nozzle findings. 1 = IE, 2 = Chrome, 3 = FF. So I agree, I would not recommend using FF without NOSCRIPT , see pic 2

    3. Extension hardening.
    Enough said on IE's limitations and FF ease to create plug-ins. Chrome has recently implemented content security policy (CSP), which limits extentions in abusing code. See http://developer.chrome.com/extensions/contentSecurityPolicy.html . IE and FF do not have this, IE is less open than FF, therefore IE has the benefit of not using interpreters (security wise) over FF, so again 1 Chrome, 2 IE, 3 FF.

    Are Online Armor and BitDefender working well together? It sounds like BitDefender has problems with other real-time programs, at least COMODO, WSA, and Kingsoft AV...
