IDK. I'm testing it.

那些说没有屏蔽效果给低分评价的的绝对都是没有安装adguard 软件就在用这个插件的人。使用这个插件的前提是已经安装了AdGuard APP之后再配合这个插件使用。如果没有安装软件，只能使用”AdGuard广告拦截器“插件，而不是这个插件。现在发现一个问题是每次打开浏览器之后都要等几秒这个插件才会启动，然后才能进行拦截工作，不知道是不是我的电脑太老旧的原因。结果就是我现在安装了“AdGuard广告拦截器”和”AdGuard浏览器助手“两个插件同时使用，这双重效果简直绝了。可以毫不夸张的说，AdGuard绝对是目前市面上功能最全、最好用的量产拦截软件。
