However, multiple users report frustration with the activation and registration process, including frequent payment prompts and difficulties maintaining subscription status.

VERY HARD TO INSTALL ?

Keeps asking for money daily, stating it has expired. Kept on calling several times to make active. Disgusting which I took this deal.

I like this program and it works well on CHROME. I wish it worked with other browsers.
