Can you share more details at support.malwarebytes.com please?

I understand this is unexpected, but these are valid ad blocks. It is under your discretion to disable ad blocks if you like, and in this case the extension is working as expected. The page just doesn't like the use of ad blockers.

I installed Browser Guard hoping it would improve my browsing experience, but instead, it has completely ruined it.

This is unacceptable, and I’m extremely frustrated with the extension. I expect a security tool to protect my browsing, not make it unusable.

It´s like it scans every 2 minutes or so when I have a few tabs open, even when don´t move the mouse, CPU upto 60 degrees for about 10 seconds every 2 minutes or so. Please fix this high CPU usage. When can we expect the next version 3.0.9~?

Cameron EckelberryDeveloperSep 6, 2024

Thanks for reporting, look out soon for the next version (3.0.9); there are more performance improvements coming.

ruining my ability to access sites. for example on hotels.com or priceline, I cannot enter a city, I try entering it and it keeps not allowing me, maybe it thinks it's a popup or something

Thank you for reporting this. This issue is due to a conflict from Easylist. It should be resolved in the next hour or two. You can ensure you are on the latest database by: 1. Open Browser Guard 2. Click the "kebab menu" in the top right corner 3. Click "Support" 4. Click "Check for database updates" If there is a conflict with an ad/tracker being blocked and the page you are using, you can always disable ad/tracker protection for that page (if you like).
