  • (2023-07-04) Luke: Before this extension worked very well, it let me know what websites were safe and were not, it would block downloads that seemed to be viruses, it wasnt until recently (after april 2023) that the extension started to slow down my browser, keep in mind that I have a very good gaming pc and I had plenty of ram storage free (I have 16gb ram and was running other minor applications such as spotify, steam, ext). I know my pc is not the issue with this and it is this extension because I turned it off and my browser is perfectly fine now, but I wish mcafee could sort this issue out as this extension is very good when it doesn't slow down my browser.
  • (2023-06-27) Cas Mariën: this extention deletes all my other extentions when i restart my pc. ITS HORRIBLE

  • (2022-11-27) ʏᴀsʜ ɢᴏᴇʟ: was lagging on chrome to watch youtube it wasn't running well just after from 1 minute of downloading it video didnt stopped ,cnot even for a single second ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ for me it deserves 10 stars
  • (2022-10-29) Sami Türkoğlu: thnk u very much :))
  • (2022-10-09) Warren Shimizu: Whenever Chrome is updated the Auto-Play setting resets to OFF! So annoying to have to turn the setting back on!!!!
  • (2022-10-06) Pushpak Soni: It does not stop videos on LinkedIn for some reason.
  • (2022-08-31) Chrome Extension: It does nothing apart from collecting and harvesting user data
  • (2022-08-07) Suman Saurabh: with only few exception it pause all ads videos as soon as it load, I do not keep my laptop mute but also I do not like unwanted sound so it helps a lot.
  • (2022-07-28) Trisha Lynn: I'm still using it, and it's working fine on most sites EXCEPT for Fox News! Their annoying videos on top of articles play every single time. Also, I don't like the notification that McAfee blocked a video from playing every time it does. Please get rid of that and I will change my rating.
  • (2022-06-01) Leo CM: A must for browsing the internet; it does exactly what it says: it stops videos from auto-playing and helps keep your internet browsing fast.
  • (2022-05-07) Chris Abbott: As of May 2022, this extension isn't working on Chrome or Edge. Videos are playing as normal. This is a shame up until recently it worked pretty well, sometimes only needed a refresh to prevent videos playing. Please fix it!

  • (2021-12-31) voltaliobscur: For some reason, it doesn't work on nationalgeographic.com. Everywhere else, but not there.
  • (2021-12-30) Jeroen M: It just modifies your default search engine. When you are browsing the web an annoying bar appears below the adressbar and is gone in a few seconds. What is fricking annoying if you want to press an button on an website and the button shifts down.
  • (2021-09-29) จับฉ่าย: when i am using microsoft team This program freezes my picture while in a meeting.
  • (2021-08-23) Rohit Chandra: is this a virus?
  • (2021-08-22) Forest F.: tHIS APP PLACED AN AD FOR THEIR SOFTWARE ON MY SCREEN. THERE WAS NO X OR CLOSE BUTTON. USING TASK MANAGER TO KILL THIS APP CAUSED IT TO REBOOT THE SAME AD. THIS IS 100% UNDENIABLY ADWARE, WHICH IS IRONIC GIVEN IT'S MCAFEE. DELETE THIS FROM YOUR APP STORE, AND STOP SUPPORTING MCAFEE PRODUCTS. THAT'S THE ONLY THING T0 DO. ALTHOUGH I KNOW GOOGLE IS MORE GREEDY THAN SENSIBLE -_-
  • (2021-06-07) Thiago Souza Onofre: Tenho uma sugestão: poderia permitir inserir exceções que eu não desejo que sejam interrompidas. Por exemplo: participo de reuniões no google meet e toda hora tenho que ficar liberando o vídeo dos participantes.
  • (2021-05-11) Game industry: По моему лично мнению до 5 звёзд ещё далеко сам по себе McAfee не плохой а вот расширение McAfee® Web Boost так себе да и до совершенство самого McAfee далеко !
  • (2021-05-09) EleFors: Останавливает видео, идеально)
  • (2021-05-05) Andres Amaranto: lado positivo: pausa los videos de anuncios. no hay que pausar los anuncios. me ahorra internet. lado negativo: te pausa videos inocente, no pausa los anuncios que tiene anuncios, cuando voy a escuhar algo, lo pausa. hay videos que desearía que pausara, pero no los pausa. conclusión: si lo recomiendo, pero si trabajo como no es, o si te pausa videos inocentes, no la uses
  • (2021-03-03) Joe 4d: Never stopped video from loading just pauses them, usually after the video has started a few seconds Now today websights are constantly switching it off so basically it has become worthless.
  • (2021-02-06) Sumeet Patel: I like this extension as it prevents Auto play videos , especially Ads . You can always play video clicking on play button in video frame. This saves memory and processing and data transmission, Ultimately it fastens your browsing. Thanks McAfee!!
  • (2021-01-08) Rehan Playz: when in first started adding this extension i loved it! but then i played roblox and it kept saying an error when that never happens
  • (2021-01-08) Rusher And longbow: this is great when I'm in online class I'm able to run everything faster
  • (2020-12-25) Mike Smith: McAfee Web-Boost works in the background without a hitch. I like that it stops videos on web pages so I don't have to hunt down the page to turn them off. I also recommend McAfee Total Protection because of all you get in one package for multiple devices, it even has VPN along with Credit monitoring and all for a very reasonable price!
  • (2020-12-22) chicagorob1: Every time the extension stops a video and you want to restart it, the audio start, but the video itself disappears. It's impossible to watch a news video with this.
  • (2020-12-11) Helped me a lot
  • (2020-12-03) Tembit: Мне нравиться видео рекламу останавливают молодцы респект и уважения
  • (2020-11-24) MiracArd: her türlü mükemmeldir mcafee bilgisayarımda yüklü zaten o yüzden buda iyi mcafeeyi öneririm
  • (2020-11-22) Varin Kulkarni: It boosts my downloads by a ton!
  • (2020-11-20) D.C: La verdad mi internet es una mi#### por que es de 5 mb :v pero instale la extensión y el navegador si fue más fluido se los recomiendo, vale muchisimo la pena la he comparado con speed chrome o web bosst y esta es mejor
  • (2020-10-31) Shubham Dev: It even pauses the video calls. On Google Meet it pauses the video of my all participants, I have to disable it every time. It would be nice if there is an option to add an exception for some websites like google meet and youtube.
  • (2020-09-28) _winter-hxzcr3am_: Terrible.When I go in to my meetings,everything just says"paused by Mcafee Web boost"Do not get!!!
  • (2020-09-17) Waldir Pereira Santos: A questão da segurança, está em primeiro lugar.
  • (2020-09-14) D Barvarz: Kaspersky or McAfee? What do you think guys?
  • (2020-09-14) Nipun: I like it! it stops videos even on CNET, lol. It only knows once the video starts, so you might hear a sound for a split second. it's simple app, there are no settings or whitelist options
  • (2020-09-13) manuel ferrer: Excelente
  • (2020-08-27) David Smith: Love it! Stops videos in their tracks!

  • (2022-11-01, v:1.1.0.20) B G V SR (B): WEB BOOST NOT DOING IT'S JOB
    For the last 3, 4, 5 years (if it's been out for 5 years) I've been using McAfee Web Boost. I never has a problem, at least that I can remember before. Although Reading all the pissed reviews maybe I could have & didn't notice it especially if it didn't last long. Anyway, I just started watching TubiTV.com again last month because of Halloween & a couple good spooky & paranormal shows my many paid channels didn't have. Anyway, if I fall asleep by accident the movie won't just stop at the end it will play the next suggested movie in it's queue & if I'm still sleeping the next. I won't go into it but it can be the biggest pain. Why is this happening? It's like it's working in reverse. When a few commercials go to play a few times almost every free movie which is the trade off deal you make for the no cost of the movie, the Web Booster stops the commercial from playing, which takes a lot more waiting time & if your not near the lousy HP Laptop you have to get to it or reach for it. But when the movie ends changes screens very noticeably & a whole new movie starts, the McAfee Web Booster doesn't do a thing-meaning it's job! Can it be fixed or should I uninstall it? B the Great

The yahoo site is NOT whitelisted. I also updated Chrome Browser and Updated the WebBVoost Extension and still same problem. (Same problem occurs when you empty Trash Folder in Yahoo Mail.) Can you please fix the problem.
