better than nothing
It messes up downloads
Till today I have used it for a long time, but now when I try to have a link scanned, it seems to require me to login! So now I would need to make an account to see scan results? No, even if it is free, I do not think this is a good thing.
I cannot imagine how my browsing experience will be without this extension. However, If you add a feature that checks the URL automatically without need to do it manually, from my perspective this extension will be PERFECT!
iM NEW HERE ITS NICE TO LEARN NEW THINGS THAT COULD MAKE MY LIFE MORE EASYER
Extremely Nice & Superb!! Simple, Easy, Time Saver!
Why is there no same extension for Safari?
Good, saves time and clicks, adds an additional layer of safety
Nice idea, but no possibility to disable on specific domains and I couldn't get rid of the alert that's displayed every time I download a file - especially annoying when I want to do multiple downloads.
its not working for me
Thank you very much! :)
This extension has saved my butt many times over and it's never failed me to date. Fantastique extension, exceptional in it's scope and I do recommend it as a "Must Have" for any browser type and Mobile application.
Каждый раз появляется промпт, не смотря на то, что отключён в настройках (если включить, то появляется 2 раза – перед отправкой и после отправки)
I use this tool a lot. Thanks!

I don't see the point of this extension. It asks me if I want to submit an item I am about to download and when I agree, it disappears, I download as usual, and never hear from VT again. What good is that? As it is, I have a bash script that uploads the file to VT and I wait for the analysis.

I'll give it 4 stars! Because the notification for "Images are ignored from scanning" is very annoying! So I had to disable the "File scanning" feature... otherwise it would have been a solid 5/5! :)

Spent time to register and got an API key to try. Keeps telling me "insert a valid key"

it works and all, it just would never unpause downloads after checking, so id have to manually unpause them which made the extension a hassle to use.

thanks for your work! I find that there is Don't scan document feature. But maybe let user Customizetheir own ignore file extensions list would be better like .webm .mp4, etc. or if file is bigger than some threshold then ignore since big file usually is just data not execution file

It might be great if extension could set self-defined file extension as ignore list. Or set certain domain to be safe as ignore list.

Отлично!
Sıradan bir resmi bile indirirken 10 saniyelik bildirim kutucuğu açılıyor ve bu oldukça rahatsız edici. Ayarlarında falanda bu bildirim kutucuğunu kapatmak gibi bir seçenek bulamadım.
Thanks for this!
Thanks for this!
Version 4.0.0 breaks login to our corporate firewall web interface, it puts me in a "your session has expired please login again" endless loop.

[2022/03/16] * Before version 4.0.0 - ★★★★☆ * Version 4.0.0 - ★★☆☆☆ Since this version, I can no longer log in to the internet banking of MUFG Bank's website in Japan. Until recently, I was able to log in. To find the cause, I tried with incognito window of google chrome, turned off chrome extensions that might affect it, and finally found that this extension was the cause. If I turn off only this extension, I can log in. The login error (in Japanese) is as follows: -------------------------------------- 正しい取引開始画面から操作されていません。再度お取引を行ってください。 ※取引の途中でブラウザの「戻る」を使用すると、取引開始画面が正しく認識されない場合があります。 -------------------------------------- The English translation is as follows: -------------------------------------- You are not operating from the correct transaction start screen. Please perform the transaction again. * If you use the browser's "back" button during a transaction, the correct transaction start screen may not be recognized. -------------------------------------- This online banking site seems to have a specification that requires a screen transition by clicking a link button on the site, etc., or else an error screen will appear. The above error usually occurs when you use the "back" button on the browser to move from one screen to another. I think it's a problem that this extension is affecting the operation and behavior of the website behind the scenes! Please fix it.

Ótimo app, simples e muito útil... Lembrando essa ferramenta não substitui o software antivírus
С недавних пор спрашивает на проверку каждый файл, несмотря на запрет проверку документов.
Everything about this extension is great, however requiring me to go to the result page instead of just showing the detection rate and community stats in a compressed summary format is very tedious. Would be a 5 star rating otherwise

Es muy buena
This is a must need for Internet users that have privacy download concerns and also engage in risky behavior. Been using this for months now and it has seriously helped out in fishing out bad download directories. It also gets updates, so you know the developers are not sleeping on some useless extension like so many do across the Chrome store these days.

is this extension backed by google ? why "Send anonymous passive DNS data to VirusTotal" is opted in by default. could you guys please clarify?
