    What does "Further scan engine improvements" mean in regard to detection? Should we be seeing an improvement in detection with this.

    66 seems to be a lot better for me to use now with Chrome. Slowdowns in background problems and extension problems seems to be better.

    Okay I'm facing browsing slowdowns with v8.0.4.66. WSA has compatibility issues with Win 8.1 leading to slowdowns in browsing with many opened tabs. The slowdown could easily be solved by disabling the add-on. But with the latest 66 version the slowdown persists even after disabling the add-on. The slowdown is not as much as before but still significant enough to cause an annoyance with a consequence of frustration. :(

    Could you write into our support inbox so that they can collect some verbose logs related to the web filtering components?

    Thanks!

    I'm not sure it will work. The last time I wrote to the inbox, they did collect logs but could not reproduce the problem. They advised me to disable the add-on. And it worked until now. With the latest version the slowdown doesn't go away with only disabling the add-on. I have disable the whole Web Shield.

    Well I'll write to the inbox anyways. Let's just hope the team can reproduce the problem this time.
