    Although a good app, it's annoying that they don't keep fully up-to-date and support thew latest browsers. With the dev cycle speeding up these days, this is a must. They refuse to support any browser other than released! Strange when things like firefox nightly etc don't use different paths..

    According to the change log it supports Firefox 4 Beta - I am running 4 beta 5 and it does not recognise it as installed! - other than that still a good app for what it does. - 1 star for no Firefox 4 beta support!

    Change Log: New and updated sensitive areas in Privacy Guard: Mozilla Firefox 4 Beta, Mozilla Firefox 3, Internet Explorer, Google Toolbar, DivX Plus Player, Windows Live Mail, Skype 5 Beta, MSN Messenger, avast! Home Edition and more.

    The product remains good.
    The support has gone down hill.
    The developers need to move up a gear! They just don't seem to put an effort into def files for the latest products. To-date they still have not done anything for Firefox 3! some 23 days after release!
    CCleaner developers on the other hand seem more on the ball, and even supported the cleaning of Firefox 3 well before release! - Good on their team.
