    Dear Developers, (Avatar...) =)
    1. The only way to disable Ad on Edge new Microsoft browser is by WFP enable and because of this...
    2. Most of the features does not work with Edge like web of trust and Ad Guard Assistant
    3. Many good website are not working properly such as Outlook.com Bing.com and many other "Big company websites"

    Will it fix in this version or only at 6 version ?

    P.S someone told me that I do not need WTP only if my antivirus block Ad Guard which is rarely I got ESETSmart Security and Malwarebytes Anti Malware Pro on the background and I made sure that I added Ad Guard folder to exuded (White List) for both ESET and Malwarebytes Pro but still no Ad block on Edge

    Hard to say. Do you have enabled WFP network driver? If so and it still fails to block the popups you would have to write to support.

    Adguard has been disabled for FireFox v41.0b1 beta. Firefox is saying it can't be verified.

    I was wondering adguard is suppose to speed up browsing if u install the full version instead of the free add-on right?

    Is there any way I can measure the time it takes to open sites with Firefox? is there any add-on/program that I can use to measure it?

    Better use signed add-on instead of the one which is listed on AMO:
    https://chrome.adtidy.org/app.html?app=main.xpi

    The listed one is still waiting for review.

    You can use Firefox web developer tools. Switch to "Network Tab" and look for number of requests and execution time there.

    Works great so far. Only issue I had that after importing of custom rules these rules didn't work, I had to delete them and add them again manually. Luckily I have only two rules :)

    You're welcome :)

    Another issue but maybe it is supposed to work in this way ... If I type ufc into Google search it logically gives a result of www.ufc.com. However when "Hide your IP address" is enabled and I click on the link it takes me to de.ufc.com (German version of UFC.com), if the option is disabled it gives me uk.ufc.com (UK version of UFC.com). But I want to enter the main UFC.com website that is primarily offered by Google search and not any localized version of UFC.com.

    EDIT: I have come to a conclusion that all three Miscellaneous options under Stealth Mode section is better to have disabled as they bring more problems (broken websites etc.).

    @pegas, that's good, means our semi-hiding is working:)

    Also we'll change hidden ip to US ip instead of German.

    Great! I thought it might be correct behaviour I was only uncertain when it brought to the German localization.
    Yes please. Dana White (UFC boss) wouldn't be pleased to see that German localized version being swapped for the main US site :)

    As far as I can say, the new alpha build is definitely of quality of beta and I guess that public beta will come up soon.
