Hi,
The new phishing filter plug in confuses me, I thought the Web shield covered phishing.
Does anyone know if the new phishing filter (located under additional protection/browser protection/expert settings) would work if I disable the Webrep plug in?
Thanks

No, the Web Shield actively scans incoming browser traffic.
And yes, you need Web Rep for the phishing filter.
