- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12778646, 4 years agoRight - I left a 3* review stating that this addon is unreliable and stops working or uninstalls itself for no good reason. I then watched it for months and edited that review to say that "yes" it definitely does that and changed it to 2* - I just uninstalled it and reinstalled and IMMEDIATELY it completely uninstalled itself! So it seems the developer can uninstall it at will. What he/she doesn't seem able to do is remove reviews. So now I will never use it again and this review goes down to 1*. If I could give it zero I would.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 16815486, 4 years agoEs blockierte Seiten, auch als es schon deinstalliert war.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 16943179, 4 years agoI tried this to block some of the numerous YouTube ads. It worked at first but after closing the Donate page and trying it further it really negatively impacted FireFox performance. YouTube would buffer where it never did before AdBlocker Ultimate was installed. The YouTube audio would just stop playing midway. I rebooted my PC multiple times, cleared Firefox browswer cache. Finally I just uninstalled AdBlocker Ultimate and all my problems went away except for the YouTube ads. It's not just YouTube that was impacted negatively by AdBlocker, other sites would time out or just stop working. Removing AdBlocker solved the problems.
YouTube is injecting so many ads now it's getting irritating like the old popup browser ads we had in the early 2000's. I guess they want to irritate viewers to pay $9.99 a month but everyone wants $10-$15 month for content, Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, CBS, Disney, ESPN, Amazon...etc. I already pay for 3 services pr/mo + Internet.
Anyway, AdBlocker Ultimate really bogged FireFox down and who knows what information it collected along the way. Not recommened. - Rated 1 out of 5by Chris, 4 years agoThere's no way to see what it has blocked. According to the developer, "a filtering log is only available in our desktop ad blocker only". Also, there is no way to whitelist only part of a website (for example, to whitelist "https://www.example.org/admin/" but filter the rest of the site normally).
- Rated 1 out of 5by pawsitive, 4 years agonot free. hounding me to pay and blocking pages with their solicitation! Pd for Ultimate, worst mistake. Can't block entire ads, only sections. Labor intensive and almost every page still has ads in it DO NOT PURCHASE OR USE

- Rated 1 out of 5by cactoos, 4 years agoWorst adblocker i tried so far. Every single ad from youtube interrupts the content i´m trying to watch as if there where nothing preventing it.
Absolute 0. - Rated 1 out of 5by Amilo-D, 4 years agoDoesn't block YT ads, inappropriate "Chat with singles" type of ads, pop-ups, clickable elements. Just useless.
- Rated 1 out of 5by V8Snail, 4 years agoWhat's the point of having an adblocker to stop annoying pop-ups when the same adblocker splashes its own adverts across YouTube videos at crital moments while watching.
Clearly a case of marketing department intervening with engineering again... - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13314271, 4 years ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 16888329, 4 years agoDid not block Youtube ads, did not block popups and was missing many ads. I hate this ad blocker.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Maverik Myx, 4 years agoThis Add-onns is so buggy it slows my internet connection so bad and yeah it slows my mozilla too and when i remove it. It's good now it is not slow now please fix this bug or remove it
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 16377741, 4 years agoI am having problems with other programs refusing to work until ad blocker is removed; however, I am unable to remove it.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Abblabblu, 4 years agoFree trial garbage. Keep using better and free alternatives like uBlock Origin and don't bother with these knock offs.

- Rated 1 out of 5by erdolphin, 4 years agoIt worked fine, but I didn't realize it was a trial for a fee-based service. I quit the app but daily get pop-ups from it and want it to stop.
