User Reviews
this sucks and i hate it. its slows my computer so much. every time i switch to a different tab my computer freezes for 3 seconds and this is very annoying for my job where i need to constantly switch tabs. i think it freezes to see if the site is safe, but i cant believe it says that sites like google or word are unsafe. also why would anyone need this app, its not that hard to recognize phishing scams.

Is Pixm Phishing Protection Safe?
Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
Pixm Phishing Protection requires a lot of sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.
Pixm Phishing Protection may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
