Joan Hamilton (ID: 000000a1335ee6b2) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 06/02/2024 It could be my computer. I turn on block ads and it turns itself off.

icon

SUPRIYO CHATTERJEE (ID: 000000d49ff17631) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 03/16/2024 The extension needs to be updated more frequently and lots of improvements needs to be made in terms of realtime blocking of all kinds of suspicious and malicious and phising websites and all types of malware domains.

Emir Diaz (ID: 0000007a55123119) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/18/2023 Es como tener Ublock + un antivirus, así que es maravilloso.

J J (ID: 000000dde7a51409) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 09/13/2023 It won't add filters that I want, especially filters for Yahoo Finance. This extension whitelists anything Yahoo. Adaware white Iists too many sites as trusted. If you delete them, they will be back the next day. The block popup button functions on all websites not just the one you are on, and that's a problem. It should be site specific and it's not. This allows video ads to be played in the dailymail but when I removed Adaware and reinstalled UBO Lite the video ads were blocked. Adaware appears to have agreements with companies to have them whitelisted and you can't remove them, they come back when deleted the next day.
