    I guess my talk over PC Tools made them create a poll asking their users opinions about whether or not to keep both standalone and implemented versions.

    Sorry for the spam, but just to let you guys know. Maybe if every BrowserDefender says their word, they will change their minds.

    I noticed that Browser Defender doesn't work with Firefox 3.5.1 :( They should update it immediately :oops:

    How is Browser Defender doing in terms of properly evaluating sites? I tried it a while back and it didn't seem particularly accurate.

    Actually at present no,it only scans real-time for phishing sites,the exploit scanning seems to be confined to pre-scanned sites now.Either this has been shelved,at least temporarily or the initial source was incorrect.Having said that the re-direction exploit referred to in that post would be covered anyway.:doubt:
