## Description

**Popup Blocker Ultimate** is a powerful Chrome extension designed to effectively block all types of pop-ups, including those triggered by clicks that Firefox's default blocker misses. It supports both desktop and Android versions of Firefox and offers customizable blocking modes such as "Block all", "Allow all", and selective whitelist or blacklist options. Users can use wildcards (e.g., *.google.com) to manage specific domains.

The extension respects user privacy by not collecting any personal data, similar to Poper Blocker. For Firefox versions below 57, a legacy version 8.1 is available via the official website. Popup Blocker Ultimate offers both strict browser setting changes and code analysis methods to identify pop-ups, with options to whitelist sites to avoid issues. Support and feedback are welcomed via email, ensuring continuous improvement and user satisfaction.

## Review summary

User reviews show the add-on was historically effective at blocking popups and is considered very useful, even catching popups that other blockers miss. However, reliability has degraded for many users in recent times, with popups slipping through on numerous sites and on Android. Some report temporary success on specific pages. Mixed experiences persist, with a few users noting strong past performance on certain sites and others noting that the product now fails to block broadly.

- Popups still appear on many sites despite using the add-on.
