Balto “Big Bad Wolf” Stansson (ID: 000000fad3e34145) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 02/08/2023 I dont like it. It has no feature though it looks like an antivirus. There is no options. It's too simple for my taste.

Jamie Murdock (ID: 000000349e17f7c1) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 07/21/2022 Works great, and sites don't tell me to "disable ad blocker" HOWEVER, NO WHITELIST ability... this is explained more in the Firefox extension listing. I found that most of my paid streaming or cable TV linked streaming fails to deliver video until I turn it off- not hard once I realize that what looks like buffering is actually blockag. No errors from the sites as to what is happening, and Bluhell doesn't announce it's activity via any blinking icon, etc. I still use it, but beware of this issue! One click on the extension icon fixes it.
