You could always just buy an official license for AdGuard like a normal person if you're after the paid features. Otherwise, there's a free browser extension for you.

As you said, you've already trialed it. Your trial ends soon. Why should you get more than one trial? The point of a trial is to test whether the software works for you and if you like it enough to want to continue using it after the trial period - you're supposed to buy the software after the trial to keep the paid features if you liked it during the trial period.

If you get a download from them, check the digital signature. If it has a valid sig, from the original vendor (adguard), then it's good.

You need to make sure that you actually check if the digital signature is valid or not - anyone can steal a digital signature embedded in a signed PE but it won't be valid.

Read the following documents to learn more - skip to appropriate sections.

Thank you, it have the digital signature but the hash is different.
did you check if the signature is valid? if you double-click on the sig, Windows will check for you, and tell you if it's valid or not, and who issued it.

You are right, we have some restrictions from buying from internet , so i need to long time to buy . The trial period is 14 days most of them i was busy, so i did not have enough time to evaluate it.

Comss.ru is pretty safe. You can just use the free Adguard extension as @Opcode suggested.
@Seyyed Akram, if you don't mind me asking, you have a very interesting avatar. To my uneducated eye, it looks like what we call in English a Dervish, which I think is a Sufi dancer. Yet, I haven't heard much about Sufis in Gaza, and you mention Gaza as your location. Am I all mixed up, or what? I know there are a lot of Sufis in Sinai, though. Just curious...

Yes you're right. In Gaza, there is a misapprehension that Sufism is an unauthentic path of Islam, so you can say that being Sufi in Gaza isn't looked upon a good way. To me, Sufism is Islam's mystical tradition; it open a door towards self discovery and the knowledge of the Divine. That's the way it is. They might control you from the outside but not from the inside. Accepting people as they are and also accepting their beliefs is a good thing but no in Gaza, unfortunately.
