Q+A: Does Mozilla FireFox’s Virus Scan Really Work ?

Posted: 09 Dec 2011 09:15 PM PST

RR 4.0

Q: Does Mozilla FireFox's Virus Scan Really Work ?

A: The only thing our tests showed is the process slightly slowed downloading files. We were NEVER warned or received a viruses detection or warning. So to regardless of this so called built in option. I would stick with my mainstay virus programs such as AVG, AVIRA and AVAST. And your Spyware, Adware and Malware programs such as SUPERAntiSpyware, Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Spybot.

Till The Next Q+A,
