What is the difference between browser extension and Adguard for Windows desktop version?
Our browser extensions are absolutely free. Although the desktop version has more advantages:
•Adguard for Windows works equally well in all browsers, including Internet Explorer and Maxthon.
•The very process of filtering is much improved. Extension capabilities are limited by the browser. But the program filters a page even before loading to browser, and that ensures the high speed and security.
•Protects against virus attacks: due to restrictions, browser extension can check only a part of elements being loaded and does not prevent their loading. Whereas Adguard for Windows checks all loading elements before they are loaded to the browser.
•Windows version warns you about potentially dangerous websites, based on the information in our database.
•In the Windows version you can protect your child from a negative influence of the Internet by configuring Parental Control the way you want.
•Higher priority for the technical support. We reply to all of your messages, but tickets from our browser extensions users are the last to be processed.
•When you use Windows version, Adguard will warn you if you proceed to the website with a low reputation according to Internet users.
