Google releases emergency update for Chrome
Google released a new security update for its Chrome web browser for desktop systems and Android. The update fixes a security issue that is exploited in the wild, according to Google.
What is StayFocusd? It is a productivity extension for Google Chrome that helps you stay focused on work by limiting the amount of time you can spend on some websites. It allows you to block or allow whole sites, specific subdomains, specific paths, specific pages, even specific in-page content (videos, games, images, forms, etc), so you can freely configure it as needed.
How does StayFocusd work? It works as follows:
After you install it, you can access it through the Chrome browser settings. It will ask you to enter the sites you want to block. You can also set a timer for how long you want to be allowed to be on a website. If the time is up, then you are no longer allowed to go to that website.
Once you have used up the time you have allowed for the day, then the sites you have blocked will be inaccessible for the rest of the day. This can be done for each day, week, month, or for the entire year.
In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:
It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.
We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.
This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.
Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.
It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.
It’s highly probable this software program is malicious or contains unwanted bundled software.
Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are likely to be real positives.
