There was a recent security errata notice released regarding a security compromise I think with this browser, its advised to only use the original browser (chrome in this case) or at least a direct port like chromium or opera.

Opera has nice improvements to the UI, but it has no 64bit build.

Personally I also dont enable any https scanning (keep plain http enabled), because they breach multiple parts of the TLS RFC, not to mention the big one where TLS traffic shouldnt be intercepted. I do this on both eset and avast. e.g. eset has no support for key pinning and OCSP. Prior to v9 they also didnt even have tls 1.2.
