"No customer support!"

"Be aware of this product"

"I'm in the trial period and I probably won't buy it."
Version: Adblock Pro (32-bit) 3.6
Pros
It does block some of the popups.
Cons
It doesn't block some particulary annoying popups like: AD.Doubleclick.net and SO.MDN.net. I've emailed their support group twice but they will not respond. And their help tab on the dropdown menu results in an error screen. Doesn't look like a reputable company to me.
Summary
Look for something better, I am.

"Ad-Block is a scam. No license key is ever provided."
Version: Adblock Pro (32-bit) 3.6
Pros
Worked well during trial period.
Cons
After the trial period I bought it---twice: once for home and once for my office. In NEITHER CASE did I ever receive a license key. And ever since I get their stupid popup message that the trial period has ended and would I please enter a product key. MULTIPLE EMAIL MESSAGES to them have gone unanswered. Even an email to C-NET does not help. Nobody really gives a hoot.
Summary
Bottom line: They take your money and never provide a key, which means they've scammed you for the price of purchase. In my case, twice.

"Didn't work for me"
Version: Adblock Pro (32-bit) 3.6
Pros
Easy to install and uninstall.
Cons
Using IE9 on Windows 7 64bit. Product did not work for me on this system.
Summary
Can't say that this program is worth it as it didn't work for me. YMMV.
-
"Product works as advertized"
Version: Adblock Pro (32-bit) 3.6
Pros
Have run the last two versions and have found it to block almost all ads. Am running it in IE8 and Chrome. Have gotten licenses promptly purchasing with both Paypal and credit card.
Cons
You will learn that on some sites you have to disable it as some logon boxes and other needed pop-ups are blocked.
Summary
Good software.

"does not work on IE9...needs to be updated"
Version: Adblock Pro (32-bit) 3.6
Pros
Blocks some ads on IE9
Cons
Overall Adblock Pro sucks on IE9. The Adblock Pro developer team needs to seriously update this software to work with IE9 better. It's been crappy and not working correctly since IE9 was released.
Summary
I have used Adblock Pro for a while on IE8. It worked quite well blocking all sorts of ads. Now I've updated to IE9 and Adblock Pro sucks bad. It blocks some ads on IE9, but for the most part doesn't work. The little green icon in the commands bar of IE9, when you click it, it is suppose to bring up the preferences, but that doesn't work. C'mon where are these Adblock Pro dev people...C'mon update this adblocker. This hasn't been updated since over a year ago...way before IE9 was released.

Summary

"Can't get the license key!!!"
Version: Adblock Pro (32-bit) 3.6
Pros
Works, for the trial period.
Cons
NO response from either sales or customer support. I have sent several emails to both.
Summary
I paid my money after the trial was over and for over a week now can not use the product I paid for due to not having a key. I can't even say they have horrible customer support because they don't have ANY customer support. I would not recommend this product until they get their support back.
