by Firefox user 14333591, 6 years agoFirst let me say, I LOVE this extension. Any computer I get my hands on, mine or not, gets AdNauseam installed on it. I recommend it to everyone I know, and have the chrome version ready to go at a moment's notice, despite not even using chrome.
My ONLY qualm is not with the philosophy of AdNauseam, which I completely ascribe to, or any of the behavior it normally displays.
However, sometimes the filter lists require updating, but they NEVER get updated. I can wait for an hour and nothing will happen, and there's no indication of how long it will take for it to finish. What's worse is that a page refresh seems to stop the updating of the filter list s altogether, and set me back to where I started. Even changing the process priority to -20 does nothing. The only success I've had with remedying this problem is removing and reinstalling.
I only wish there were more information about this problem other than that it takes a lot of CPU to update the lists.
