Provided result is highlighted either in green for secure pages, red for potentially harmful ones and gray if not scanned by the application. However, not every page is highlighted, thus limiting provided features.

Saving a page as favorite only places it in a list, with no possibility of creating folders nor having them displayed in a dedicated toolbar. To end withAll in all, Trend Micro SafeGuard for Windows 8 is nothing more than a web browser that tries to offer a little extra security. However, available features are limited and the core function does not really keep you on the safe side, only warning you that a specific page is potentially harmful.
