- (2025-06-20) KC 1920: I've used Malware Bytes for years without a problem, but now I keep getting popups from Google telling me "you have selected too many filters, exceeding Chrome's limit for active rules". I've tried unselected something each time, and I still get the popups. I've tried uninstalling, reinstalling, and the same thing. I've tried deleting google and resetting it, then starting it fresh & I still get popups. I've had to switch to another extension. Malware Bytes was EXCELLENT while it lasted
- (2025-06-06) Dan Bear: You try to add the extension, it appears to install okay. Then it forces a webpage that says "You're almost done" which you can't get rid of, then it says pick the puzzle icon then click the pin icon and that does nothing and you either don't have the browser guard or you have to way to turn it on.

- (2024-10-31) Mike Thomsen: Stops one from being logged in on NYTimes.com even if you turn off the tracker/ad blocking toggle for the site. Not great so far.
- (2024-08-03) J J: Can't disable for certain sites. No functioning blocking element feature like Adguard MV3 Beta. Some sites detect this adblock need filter for that. No details on items blocked. Needs work. So far, Adguard MV3 and Ghostery MV3 are better than this.
- (2024-07-08) Courtney Rose: This is my new favorite mv3 extension. It blocks ads/trackers, malware & everything else dangerous on the web. Though granted I am using a ChromeOS but eh it's better to be safe then sorry in my opinion. Also it has settings I wasn't expecting to find in a mv3 extension & not to mention it's lightweight & fast. So will probably be using this from now on. Not to mention I feel more protected & safer as well then the other mv3 extensions out there. Anyway I don't work for Malwarebytes or anything but feel like based on the reviews need to say something. This is the Malwarebytes mv3 extension. The original one is for mv2 still. MV3 is the new thing extensions have to use now. So this extension is legit you can even check out the Malwarebytes forums about the extension https://forums.malwarebytes.com/topic/294541-malwarebytes-browser-guard-beta-for-manifest-v3/ Anyway hopefully I helped anyone who stumbled across this.

- (2023-03-13) Joe B: I've been using MB for over a decade. I'm thrilled to finally them release a security tool for browsers. This release is still fairly new, however given the background of Malwarebytes and the overwhelming success behind everything they've ever released, I'm certain that this extension will soon be #1 in browser security. I have used this extension across multiple browser platforms for about a week now I must say, i'm impressed. 10/10 would recommend!
