Superb. Just what I needed. Installed on the Opera and it instantly blocks those annoying pesky pop-up tabs. Much love!

Good extension but can you add option to select : close tab match black list(already have) or close tab when match black list and tab have no back url(tab opened in new tab, almost ads do this). Thank very much.

For what I needed this is perfect. I have a free app that always opens a new tab and nags me to upgrade. I blocked it with hosts file for awhile but even that stopped working. Now when it opens I just see a quick blip on the screen and it's gone. This extension is easy to use; just add a URL and check the box, done. Thank you.
