So will you keep Sophos or do you have an alternative already?
My license is about to expire in 2 weeks. So I am looking for a replacement. For the moment Sophos is not doing very well in tests. I tested 113 recent malware samples. They only blocked 77.53%.
Update Sophos issue:
Sophos is still investigating the issue. They asked for additional information and I send it yesterday. I hope they can find the issue. Their support is quite good.

I do not use any DNS thing on my PC, or Edge. I also turned off the "DNS Protection" in the Adguard.
Is this okay to turn this setting below off? Thanks.
You mean if I don't use DNS function in the Adguard for Windows?
I noticed that browsing slows down considerably when some features are activated or more lists are added from what's offered. Thinks speeded up when I reset settings to default. To minimize the cookie notification popups in some sites, I also had to activate Fanboy's Annoyances.
@monkeylove Thanks for the update. Is the Fanboy's Annoyances, the only item in the category of the Annoyances, that you selected and added?
For now, yes, and it was able to stop cookie popups in at least one site. I will visit other sites and see if a second list will work, then report to this thread. For now, I want to minimize adding more lists or even activating features.
Edit: I was able to block video popups in a second site using the Web Annoyances ultralist plus cookie notifications in another site, so I'll try that and deactivate Fanboy Annoyances first.

Ever since Adguard changed the person responsible for the Annoyances filter, it has been useless at best.
I got no problems with cookiestuff or annoyances on most sites I visit (using the adguard Annoyances filter not adding fanboys).
If you trust them you can think about enabling "Filter HTTPS"
But the decison is up to you.
