User reviews

really great now i can auto close that annoying game website pop up that opens when i download a game off their website

I didn't understand how it works. If i set 100 ms, it works properly, but if I set a bigger value, for example 300000 ms(=5 min), it doesn't work.

Doesn't work anymore: it either closes wrong tab (like neighbour tab) or doesn't close it at all.
