Hi, I'm using Mac OS 10.95. Went to get Adblock Ultimate from your site several days ago and it worked fine. Today after updating to Firefox Vers. 50 I see that something called Stealthy has replaced the Adblock Ultimate on the little icons on the top left. When I checked the Add-ons I saw it listed, and when I click on Preferences I got to a page (see attached) that is nearly blank and the top said Chrome Adblock options. I distinctly downloaded a version for Firefox and it was working until today. Any ideas?

Hi, it seems there is a glitch in Adblock Ultimate which has removed the icon, but will be fixed in a few days - see under 'About this Add-on' here - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/adblocker-ultimate/

Stealthy seems to be unrelated, so don't know why that has appeared, but if you don't want it, you can remove it - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/stealthy/

If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you!
