Some of these extensions require Avast products to be installed on your computer.
However, you'll notice a load of custom Avast extensions pre-installed, such as anti-fingerprinting, anti-tracking an Adblock, extension guard and much more. When you start Avast Secure Browser it looks like another version of Chrome. Some might argue a little too customised.
Worse, install a third-party extension and you have to be 100% sure that it isn't malicious and hope it's not designed to extract your personal data.Īvast Secure Browser is a Chromium-based web browser (much like the forthcoming new Edge from Microsoft) which is a version heavily customised by Avast. Chrome, Firefox and other third-party web browsers are popular, but not universally trusted.
