what does malware block do, in the Block Ads-Manage Lists-Other Lists section of the settings for opera? Do i turn the switch on or off for it to be enabled? Sorry just alil confused as to whether the switch being on actually turns that feature of the ad block thing off or is it on instead? Just wanna make use of it if its nice to have on.

@Heward It blocks sites that are known for spreading malware.

The list is enabled if the option is checked.

No worries, it can be a bit confusing! In Opera’s settings under Block Ads > Manage Lists > Other Lists, turning the Malware Block switch ON will actually enable the malware protection feature, helping to block harmful sites. So if you want that extra layer of security, keep the switch ON!
