Features & Capabilities

PopupFilter is a lightweight and efficient browser extension developed using the WebExtensions API, compatible with Firefox, Chrome, and Opera. It prevents unexpected popups opened by website links or scripts, enhancing your browsing experience and privacy.

The extension offers three operating modes: Normal (allow all popups), Confirm (prompt before opening new tabs/windows), and Blocking (block all popups from links and scripts). Unlike many popup blockers, PopupFilter functions without blacklists or whitelists and does not collect browsing history or personal data, ensuring your privacy remains intact.

Additionally, PopupFilter's settings page provides a comprehensive overview of opened, confirmed, and blocked tabs, with quick actions like closing tabs, restoring blocked content, or navigating directly to specific tabs. Supported languages include English, French, Italian, and Spanish, making it accessible to a broad user base.

Is PopupFilter 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.

PopupFilter requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

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.

PopupFilter has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
