> I had spend hours upon hours trying to get rid of several adware infections (Obrona, Offers4u, SASA). I tried malware/adware/spyware removers, antivirus scans, uninstall utilities, system resets.

µBlock's purpose is **not** to remove existing malware/adware/spyware: It can not do this. µBlock's purpose is to block outgoing network requests, and collapse [DOM](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Document_Object_Model) elements according to the selected filter lists.
It appears you are merely curing the symptoms, not the disease. I wouldn't want users to get false expectations concerning µBlock.
