Can not live without it!

I went over to a friends house and she showed me this extension. It worked beautifully on her computer. I downloaded it today and it seems to not be working. When I want to search it comes up with the premium ad and when I press "just search" the pop-up closes and then nothing happens. I came on here to look at reviews and saw that most people had a hard time contacting the developer so I am not going to try. Just going to delete it, no use having it on my Chrome.
