McAfee® WebAdvisor

Description from store

Search confidently, browse safely.

McAfee WebAdvisor for Microsoft Edge is your trusty companion that helps keep you safe from threats while you search and browse the web. This extension safeguards you from malware and phishing attempts while you surf, without impacting your browsing performance or experience.

Here’s how it works:
1. Search safely. For supported search engines, WebAdvisor will place red, yellow or green safety ratings right in your search results so you can efficiently navigate to safe sites.
2. Click with confidence. WebAdvisor blocks most potentially bad sites before they can do harm, displaying a page to warn you of potential risks.
3. Breathe easy. Even genuine websites can unwittingly play host to malicious content, but don’t worry - WebAdvisor helps to identify and block these risks, while preserving legitimate content.

As one of the world’s leading independent cybersecurity companies, McAfee actively protects over 300 million consumer devices worldwide and uses this expertise to power the real-time protection that makes WebAdvisor your first line of defense for safer browsing.

ho appena fatto presente a McAfee che anch'io come altri penso di aver subito abusi. Infatti continuano ad arrivarmi avvisi targati McAfee di virus immaginari e di pressioni per rinnovare l'abbonamento scaduto(!?). Direi di finirla. Saluti

If this is another TotalAV experience I will be very pissed off!!! Isn't there a decent protection company out there that doesn't rip you off? There had better not be any extras added to this sign-up!!!
AYO
why would you even try to test it by adding malware dumb
Summer
Seriously confused on how every time I get on my computer i see a flag saying fix now and I click it and it leads me to a screen to purchase more coverage. I purchased the biggest package y'all got and I need to buy more. What the heck does it even cover?

extension error reloads itself to often i pay good money to not be protected when browsing?
Patricia
Suddenly had an EXTENSION ERROR and stated that it "RELOADED ITSELF TOO FREQUENTLY". Hopefully it will be fixed soon as I've enjoyed using this for a while. Uninstalled and reinstalled, hopefully that works.

I am getting the "This extension reloaded itself too frequently." message for this extension, and it seems this extension is not working.
Daniel
WebAdvisor has Extension Error- reloading itself to often. McAfee providing no help on it. Not worth their time to troubleshoot & correct so not worth my time to use it!
Ron
Extension error; reloaded itself too frequently. What is the fix? When will it be available? Internet security is a top concern for everyone.
Carl

Keep getting this message and cannot get the extension to run/turn-on. McAfee® WebAdvisor This extension reloaded itself too frequently.
Felicia
This is the source of the "This App cannot run on your PC" pop up. I think it is from the July 7th update. Boo!! Get your programing together and fix it. It is super annoying. If you disable the extension, the pop up goes away. But then you won't have as much security.
Bryan

Christine
why does McAfee keep popping up in the corner of my screen asking me to join. Witch i have already done it is most annoying... if it does not i stop i will ask for my payment back which was renewed on the& july25 '
David
I cannot add my country or province or get codes sent to my mobile device; McAfee is about the best protection overall. I was over sold more protection than I needed so that should not happen on my next renewal. I removed 1 star.

Elizabeth, You have been scammed using paypal. I was yesterday and I'm in a mess. Don't call paypal on the # that is in that email.
Teri
Why are there no responses from McAfee for the reviews and comments?
george
no
Elizabeth
I also received a message saying, my prescription is ready to expire. I actually was going to call McAfee today. That is scary to me, the first thing I thought of was it a scam. I need answers to why is it saying this? I'm getting all kind of information from PayPal, and other companies emailing me saying thanks for your payment of $664.00. I know I haven't given anyone anything. Who is paying attention to this?
