Thing is, when I installed it I was locked into it- could not use any other search engine until I uninstalled it.  There are several and I found it does not do everything well, even though it is good at blocking ads.

Tojo is right, I've had duckduckgo for about three years, never has an ad made it through.

"Manual" pop-up ad

This is a popup that you may want to avoid.  It pops up anywhere on the screen rather than the bottom.  In fact, I accidently clicked on it.  The screen jumps up or down based on the bottom popup ad changing, and it moved just as I was clicking on a forum, with the result that I clicked on the yellow button ad.

I suppose the product they are selling is a legitimate piece of software, but whether or not you go there, they make it hard to back out.  I had to shut down my browser to get back out.
