G Data CloudSecurity- Another Web Browser Protection Plugin

G Data CloudSecurity is a web browser protection plugin that is compatible with Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox.

This plugin will scans web pages for malicious activity and warns users if malicious activities have been discovered during the scan and will show you the above warning page. Malicious activities include phishing and malware downloads, among others.

Features:

• Compatible with all other security products
• Prevents access to malware and phishing websites
• Install once – no updates required
• PC performance remains unaffected
• Ideal supplement for free AV programs

You can also disable this plugin for a time period. Personally, I think this is great for Newbie but lack of information/explanation on why the sites it block for.

Experienced users will choose Web-Of-Trust(WOT) and McAfee's siteadvisor for it.
