        @jasonbegaming No, I just try not to get too bent out of shape when it happens. More recently, I have run across sites that I can't remove from the blocked list. Equally annoying, but nothing to lose sleep over.

          Super Easy, simple, and convenient. Took 2 seconds to install and you can block a site in 3 easy clicks.

            @purpledonkey I agree that installing and blocking are easy. However, the product continues to lose my entire blocked list every now and then, and it has now become impossible for me to un-block a site even if I remove every instance of that site from my blocked list. I would have to say that saving a few seconds on setup doesn't really compensate for software bugs that the vendor doesn't seem to want to fix.

              @deandog Ok, well that hasn't happened to me yet. Although I have heard it's a problem. For now though, I've had no problems with that thankfully.

                New problem. I added a password, and now the product won't accept it. Hoping that can be fixed by uninstalling and reinstalling. I have a feeling that even if that works, I will once again lose my entire list of blocked sites.

                    'Blocked Since' - is it possible to show the first and not the latest time by settings anyway? Need the view for checking how long the site is blocked in general (Version 0.4.6)

                      if i block something like 'facebook' then i cant access facebook.com, but i can still access facebook.com/random_page no problem, making it kind of useless for me.

                        @bigbob90 Never used this particular extension, but did you try a wildcard? If they recognize standard wildcards, try facebook.com/*

                          The interface is not user-friendly. The text in the options is cryptic. If you are not a professional programmer, you might not figure it out. They even admit this by issuing an instruction video. There is no usage-based blocking, i.e. when you've exhausted your time limit for the day. If you want to see how a proper extension looks and how many options there should be, check out StayFocusd for Chrome.
