Malwarebytes Browser Guard is a free add-on for your browser that protects you from malware without slowing it down. It lets you browse the web quickly and safely.

To keep malware and other dangers away, it works like this:

Stops malware: bad websites, fake tech help scams, browser hijackers, and more are blocked. It checks web pages for anything that could be harmful and lets you know if you’re at any risk.

Scam protection: This extension finds browser lockers, browser hijackers, and other tricks that tech support scammers will use to trick people into giving them money.

Tracker protection or advertising: stops trackers that follow you around the web and show you the same ads over and over.

Clickbait protection: The Malwarebytes addon keeps you away from annoying and potentially dangerous clickbait websites. Protects you from possibly unwanted programs (PUPs), which are programs that might not be harmful but are still unwanted and could be harmful.
