[QUOTE="Windows_Security, post: 792111, member: 50782"] Hi, my name is Kees: I am browser extension addict. Gave it a spin today on Linux Lite to cold turkey from my newly acquired 'install, tweak and remove" extensions addiction (all other security was covered on my [URL='https://malwaretips.com/threads/windows_security-linux-lite-pc-configuration-for-2019.89076/']Linux Lite setup[/URL] I had nothing to play with). So a big thanks to [USER=67474]@CyberTech[/USER] for this zero config set and forget extension. (y) I will report tomorrow evening whether I managed to survive my first day in extension rehab. Taking a peak at the network requests made by SmartAdblock with Chrome developer tools you can see which filters it uses :) Besides blocking ads it also does a decent job blocking cookie prompts, javascript popups/popunders and ads in video's (without stutter).
