However, the solution is simple: you should add the entire web to exclusions of secure content. Thank you Martin for this useful article, it gave me the idea of how to solve my stream radio problem. Thanks again, Martin. Google Chrome: Never used it, and never will.
Just switch to another browser and tell Google to take a hike. The problem is that while marketing itself as the independent alternative, Firefox follows closely what Chrome does, so that Google can enforce its policies on Firefox users too.
Firefox forks should be used to limit the damage. Can you provide some examples of Firefox following Chrome closely? I want to know these things so that the next time I talk to a FF fanboy I will bring them up. I only know about the FF android fiasco extension support and about:config removal. Works great and I can even use legacy Firefox extensions.
I have had absolutely no security problems. I am not doubting your claim that Firefox follows closely what Chrome does but can you give a few examples? I would really like to know. Also which Firefox fork do you recommend? I am looking for a new browser that is similar to FF for my win7 machine. What if you copy the hotlink and paste it in a new tab? I never encountered this, so I had no need to try it, but I guess it should work.
Garbage like this is why I use Pale Moon. That garbage from pale goons that keep spinning years old unsecure moozilla code might not track but deliver a nice malware bundled into their pale web browser straight from their compromised windoze servers they cannot secure by themselves.
You should clarify the wording in your article. That is NOT the case, and an important point to make. Chrome keeps getting worse every version. I went to T-Mobile last night. Tried to refill my Pay-As-You-Go account. Chrome does allow me to login. But then when I submit my refill, nothing happens.
No notification of any kind. Who knows? Then I tried to save the page showing my planned submission. This is ridiculous. Whoever is designing these browsers and Web sites like T-Mobile are complete and utter morons. Maybe some problem of non security content?
Blocking of download is not a good idea , it may affect google badly. People want to download many things from the internet stopping them from doing that may harm the google badly, people easily switch to other browsers. Version The tab opens with your file name in the URL but nothing happens.
Works fine in FireFox, Brave and believe it or not Edge. On my Windows 7 SP1 x64 machine, I have FireFox as my preferred browser, when Chrome opens the new tab, it hangs on a white screen for a bit, after about 10 seconds, Windows prompted FireFox to open and up came the option to download, I had to click a link to open File Manager to download the file and it worked. I just spent an hour on the phone with a customer trying to download critical vaccination information from the Government of Canada website because when she clicked the link, it just did nothing.
Yet worked on all her other devices Apple. So no error, no indication to a regular user that it is blocked. Just silently failing. Way to go, Google. Once again you are using your monopoly to dictate how you believe the Web should work. How much more time will be wasted? This is just stupid and may make me leave Chrome.
ANY user feedback would have been nice. When I click a download button or right click and get no response other than a quick screen flicker … I lose my mind. This means that all antivirus engines used by the service did not find any traces of malware in the file. It is not clear why Chrome determined that uTorrent is malware, especially since its own virus scanning service came to a different conclusion during tests.
You could turn off Google's Safe Browsing feature in Chrome to avoid this from happening in the future. If you rely on those, it is better to keep it turned on considering that this impacts other security features such as phishing protection as well.
Note also that Chrome will display a "This type of file can harm your computer. Do you want to keep [filename] anyway? If you do that, the file is restored on the system so that it becomes available on it. Another thing worth noting is that third-party antivirus solutions may interfere with downloads in Chrome as well. You may need to whitelist the files in the security program to be able to download it. Google Chrome will block certain downloads outright.
I have been a loyal Firefox fan since day one. But I have been having too many problems with it on Facebook and Twitter. Now I have been forced to use it as my secondary browser. Chrome Canary bit for Windows 7 is now my primary browser. Firefox can do hundreds of things no other browser can do. I have Enable phishing and malware protection ON, and just downloaded uTorrent for test, with no blocking by Chrome beta.
Thank you for this. I was having trouble with two files and all the rest were okay. I ran my URLs through virustotal as suggested, and one site out of 62 decided my files were malicious. On both occasions it was Dr. I adjusted the advanced settings within Chrome; and my problem was solved.
Thanks for your help; greatly appreciated. Thanks for sharing this, especially the tip about the files remaining in the downloads list so they can still be accessed. This is easier than changing permanent settings and still gives warnings so you can load the file up in a VM if you feel it may have been a risky click. This is very risky to Disable phishing and malware protection option. And you will face the problem after full downloading the file :.
You will see that the file is a malicious and it has been blocked! And there is no option to save the file but Dismiss. You can save the file and can grab it without downloading the file again!
But how? Add a comment. Active Oldest Votes. You need to pass the HashMap containing the required configurations to the instance of the ChromeOptions Class as follows: System. Improve this answer.

Where it goes wrong is website owners either misinterpret the rules and have a popup for everything or start adding cookies that can be used to track you. What the legislation should have done is allow browsers to pass flags to a site to limit what cookies can be used.
These obviously need further consent when for example setting up an account for on-line shopping etc. No-one is being forced to use Google. It is like complaining about Amazon when people can just ignore amazon and go and buy their stuff in a local store and support small business….
Of course we expect the EU to deal with trivial stuff like that, life is easier. Do you build your own roads? Same with global warming or pollution for example, let the EU regulate the corporations, the only undemocratic things in the EU are Hungary and Poland. Sounds like Paul us paradise. I end up having to educate them and giving them a link to VirusTotal to check for themselves. This is naive. That happened automatically without a prompt. Google knows what URL the file was downloaded from.
And this happens for a large percentage of downloaded files, not just programs, Mozilla has been inclusive for non-binary ones too, read the discussion. Note the very high number of downvotes for that correct answer. Note then the confirmed Mozilla employee who denies that this is how it works. So we have already three layers of denial here to hide the facts. Someone insists that this is correct and the employee gives quotes a non relevant part of a technical reference that actually confirms what was said.
Fourth layer of denial. Those who have practiced them a little know what I am talking about. The sworn enemy of fake internet content. Like that was not already bad enough that it was enabled by default.
Safebrowsing can easily be disabled in FF desktop and Focus. If happy with the result it gets moved from the Sandbox.
