Remove Nano Adblocker and defender

Not sure if anyone else has received the message to uninstal the above extensions due to the fact that they now contain malware after being bought out by some thieving Turks.

I've heard of but not used them. There is talk on the Internet saying they should be uninstalled after bad code was found in them. One article here..

Thanks Percy

I have downloaded it as a replacement as it seems to have good reviews.

It looks as if it might be like AdGuard. There is a paid version that blocks ads system-wide. It doesn't need installing into a browser individually because it works with any installed browser, even if there are a few installed. The extension for an individual browser is free though.

AdGuard blocks ads before they load into a web page. The extension block ads after (but quickly). Maybe the paid version of AdBlocker Ultimate works in the same way.

I wouldn't know Ted. I just downloaded it as an extension to Firefox. I wasn't asked to pay for it or for a donation.
