Virtually all browsers contain blacklists to prevent users from accessing malicious sites: Google Safe Browsing, Phishtank, etc. These blacklists do not however, generally block sites that have been compromised by Blackhat spam SEO attacks, HTML/JavaScript injections that pull malicious content from another domain. Rather, they block the malicious pages that hijacked sites redirect you to - or pull content from.
While this is fine for most websites, assuming you simply surf and do not input any sensitive information anywhere, but would you be okay with giving your personal mailing address, phone numbers and credit card information to a website that is fully controlled by ill-intentioned hackers?
The problem is, how do you know whether the sites you are visiting have not been compromised or not when your tools ignore these types of threat? Zscaler Safe Shopping is a Firefox add-on designed to prompt you whenever you visit an oline store that has been compromised.
