    We're talking about Adguard for Windows and SSL filtering. It's a bit different:)

    I cannot uninstall AdGuard. I was trying the COMSS version most recently and there wasn't even an entry under Add or Remove Programs. I installed the Beta over the top. That gave me the entry at last, but the uninstallation didn't do anything. The service and gui are still running and on automatic.

    Have you tried rebooting and then uninstalling again?
    Soon I'll add an article on how to uninstall Adguard forcibly for cases like yours.

    Could you add support for 360 Browser and add the entry 360 Browser - By Default to "Settings > Browsers"

    Here is more info on the browser itself (Same people who brought us 360 Total Security)

    There are some but these methods depends on the setup package used for installation.

    I'll try. You could find or download setup package (not web installer). It is available by the link http://download.adguard.com/setup.exe
    and run it from the command prompt:
    Code:
    setup.exe /uninstall
    
    The problem is that I am not sure about the setup package, we have not tested it. The original package (used for installation) could be required.

    It's clear now. Thanks! So, while there is possibility to use the command prompt, it's not recommended to use it until this method is properly tested and approved for usage.

    The uninstaller package doesn't actually get rid of Adguard
    , will this be fixed in future versions?

    Plus...

    Any news about future releases?

    Are you talking about the instruction above?
    As I've said it is not recommended to use it, and original package (used for installation) could be required

    5.10 is in beta-testing stage now. End of July is an ETA for stable release.

    Hi,

    avatar could you advise me on this, I use Hotspot Shield and try to block their unneeded scripts (to me) if I can...

    While I was trying adguard for firefox it blocked this Hotspot Shield script with this via its own filters...

    ||box.anchorfree.net^


    I've re-installed AdGuard for windows and added ||box.anchorfree.net^ to my user filters but it still runs?

    I think @clubhouse1 is talking about HotSpot free version.
