Another software I have used from the start, and have found it better than the rest.
It's the only one in it's class that is system wide so I know I have added protection.
None of the others are system wide, AdGuard is in a class all it's own.
No slowdowns here either, using FF and AdGuard.

CG,

I have added Adguard folder in Kaspersky Internet Security 2017 Exclusion And added Adguard.exe, Adguard.Tools.exe, AdguardSvc.exe & certutil.exe as Trusted Applications in KIS.

Is it safe to do the above?

really? nothing at all? i am so tempted buying it then
Try the 6 month trial i guess. It sure doesn't create load but i personally have issues with it and the devs ignore me. Used it for more than a year without issues though so it depends.

They will have deals at Christmas probably. Never buy something you didn't try because not all systems are the same.

guys, does adguard slow down the system and stuff?
Not even a little, I am a gamer and I pay close attention to things like this when adding software
and I can tell you it has no effect at all on system speed. It can have adverse effects on your browsing
speed if you clog it up by selecting too many filters. There is no need to do this though as it will add the
appropriate filter for what ever region your browsing takes you to.

What security software you run?
Your security software scan HTTPS?
Emsisoft is the only one that should touch https.
Rehips doesn't, WFC is windows Firewall basically.
Nothing else in always running. Rest of the programs i use are on demand.

The issue is not that i have an issue but that they didn't even bother getting in touch to see if they figure it out.
