[QUOTE="JasonUK, post: 917429, member: 86995"] I've been using AdGuard Desktop for the last few weeks but have decided to tinker again as although it's good, it's noticeably slower than either the AdGuard or UBO extension, is heavier on the system and.. I've discovered in-browser DNS over HTTPS :) So I've enabled DNS over HTTPS in my two main browsers (Brave & Firefox) using [S]Cloudflare's Malware (1.1.1.2)[/S] Quad9's DNS. I figured that with in browser screening, my AV's web protection & [S]Cloudflare's[/S] Quad9's malware/phishing filters I can remove the Online Malicious URLs & Phishing Army's filter list. I'm using the optimised AdGuard & Easyprivacy lists still. I've probably got a few too many cosmetic filters still but I've been pruning the overall filters numbers from a high of c300k down to c110k which is going in the right direction.
