    Extensions.  I am not convinced that browser extensions are a good thing.  You are dependent upon the security resources of the person or company who built those extensions.  Chrome has long removed extensions when they’ve proven to be malicious.  Just the other day Edge removed some extensions from their “store” which then removed them from your computer.

    You should periodically review what extensions you have installed and if you still want them installed.  Remember to review any extension, click on the menu bar and go to extensions (Edge) or menu, settings, Extensions (Chrome) or Menu, Addons, Extensions (Firefox) .  Now remove any unusual extension you don’t recall installing.
