    "it definitely slows things down a bit, but . . . . . ."

    April 11, 2012  |   By wolfattiig

    Pros

    the feeling of a bit more security is always a good thing when you hit one of those" wrong turn" sites

    Cons

    it can really slow things down a bit but thats it really. The adds that keep popping up behind the window your using can be annoying. But if you turn the sound off you dont even know they're there.

    Summary

    Its free and it works. You get what you pay for.
