I found it useful until I discovered that disabling this extension removed all unexpected intrusive ads on some pages ...
Wonderful!! Loved it so much. Many thanks to the dev team.
REALLY GREAT APP PLEASE TAKE AWAY THE ADDS. That really brings down your credibility as an app developer. I know you can opt out but I have a bunch of people who are very upset with me over recommending your app and now getting add spammed.
When opting out, a great addon. Works like a charm!
I've been using this extension for a while and has been great. Then it suddenly started dishing out "Offers4U" malware pop-ups when visiting Amazon.com. The extension pushes browser information to f.asdfzxcv1312.com which retrieves a java script. Very very upset that this app has turned to the darkside. I will be looking for another file manager app to replace this one.
спасибо, все работает, супер плюс плагин для redmine https://github.com/bearmini/redmine_wiki_unc
Injecting ads onto images that must be closed before the image can be viewed correctly. Doesn't do this immediate, but delayed after a set period of time. The producer says there is an Opt-out feature, however there is no Opt-out option. http://puu.sh/lD9KR/8271a2e59e.png http://imgur.com/AP7w7m8 Image links for proof.
I can't use it on my Mac...
very good! 免費又強大!
very helpful! This is the best one ever on chrome web store - highly recommended!!
