I found this: |

When you install, I think a tutorial pops up. Maybe I went to add ons |
| 37 |
and clicked it there. Anyway, it has a page and it has like a little |
| 38 |
slide show. It shows how to adjust settings and such and talks about |
| 39 |
how it works. At first, it doesn't do much but it learns as you browse |
| 40 |
the internet. However, you can override and tell it to block everything |
| 41 |
or nothing at all according to the tutorial. If you have it installed, |
| 42 |
try this: |

| 45 |
|

That's what is in my URL when I am on that tutorial. It may or may not |
| 47 |
work for you tho. I just installed and read up on it myself. |
