User reviews
This software stinks! It won't install (I got it to install once, and nothing happened) I've been trying to uninstall it for 45 minutes now, and cannot find the "cancel my subscription" link. Don't buy anything from this company! I gave it a 1 star rating because they don't have 0 Stars available.

Several ads are regularly getting through your blocking software. Direct TV and Ask an Expert are the worst.
