    Reinstalled BrowserDefender, now that I switched over to Yahoo Search I no longer have to worry about the Google bug. No program updates in a year but the cloud is still going through and classifying sites. Plus they fixed a few of the FP's that were driving me crazy last time I tried it, and most importantly its still light. I know its not 100% needed but ClearCloud does not give search URL ratings so it still fits it on my machine.

    Next week I plan on working on my laptop machine which my family uses to extend protection. I also plan on installing MD but have not had time yet.

    Correct.
    Surprisingly Cloud AV scanning is included on-execution for unknown files, even though I don't have the Antivirus component

    @jmong: Allowed browser means exploit/payload is allowed if it runs in context of browser process.

    @jmonge: Glad to know about detection. What about threats like dll injection?

    What do you guys think about Secure Browser? Any experience
