    Thumbs up TrafficLight (BETA) : BitDefender browser security plugin.

    BitDefender TrafficLight adds a strong and non-intrusive layer of security to your browsing experience.This extension will add a strong layer of security over your browsing experience without inducing speed penalties or system resource consumption. Part of the processing is done in the cloud with some intelligent small engines that make various checks on pages you're visiting enabling you to have top notch antiphishing and antimalware protection.

    Some Features -

    Cross-Browser - TrafficLight works with virtually any Windows-compatible browser. It even keeps look, feel and functionality consistent if you switch browsers.

    Proactive - TrafficLight intercepts and scans web traffic before it even reaches the browser, effectively blocking disguised or stealth attacks before it's too late.

    Realtime - TrafficLight scans the pages you visit for malware and phishing attempts each and every time you access them to avoid the threat of legitimate but recently compromised websites.

    Thank you for the information. This could be the next alternative. While still trust on mbam, feels heavy to be set aside.

    The concept is good but the brand name was not.

    Due to the significance and efficacy of browser security plugins, I'm not surprised that Bitdefender has followed too. This thing has been long pioneered by McAfee and WoT for a long time and now like apps are sprouting like mushrooms.

    Thanks INDRANIL for heads up I will check it soon.

    EDIT: I am currently using it as chrome extension. It works great. I cannot feel any browsing speed differences and want to see its actual efficiency against infected sites.

    Very nice Indranil. Don't know how good it will be but it seems it relies more on realtime scanning like AVG link scanner rather than blacklisting. Another interesting feature is that it has a quite button to shorten the webpage by saf.li . Also this extension shows ratings in search results... Nice one indeed. I am using the Chrome extension now.

    Chrome extension is working flawlessly, but the web-installer was not functioning well yet at least on my box.

    good share. According to the chrome task manager this extension is using up the least amount of memory.
