Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Yes, I have to manually visit the websites to check its status. If it's a malicious website, then it can install viruses on my PC beforehand.

Describe the solution you'd like

Add an icon next to websites so that a user can easily figure out if a certain site's malicious or not.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Pinning the extension works for the time-being. It isn't the best solution though as it doesn't solve the original problem and one still has to visit the website.

Hi kvhjdffv! Thanks for the suggestion—this sounds like a valuable idea!

Just to clarify, are you envisioning an icon next to website links directly in search results, like on Google, DuckDuckGo, or Brave? This would definitely help users avoid needing to visit potentially harmful sites to check their status.

We’re also working on some future updates, including settings options and an additional feature that prompts a warning page before entering flagged or risky sites. This should be especially helpful for users who may not have a protective filter list like uBlock enabled.

Thanks again for the input—these ideas really help us improve FMHY SafeGuard for everyone!

Hello again. Yes, you are correct. I want to have an icon next to every website. This way, I don't need to visit the website to (potentially) get malware.

this comment is pretty offtopic

btw there is an alternative to this -
you can use uBlacklist with FMHYFilterlist added to it - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/fmhy/FMHYFilterlist/main/filterlist-wildcard-urls.txt

(by writing this I'm not saying that this suggestion is a bad idea, it's good even if alternatives to it are already available)
