Description

One would want to have a rule not blocking com.apple.xxxx and an easy way to add a rule for other trusted domains … – the problem is of course the many alerts – a lady I installed it for found her computers full of these messages from yesterday today. It is relatively easy to Disable BlockBlock if you sit at the computer when this happens, but if you are not there is no easy way to get rid of all the popups at once like holding down Option to dismiss them all when closing one or allowing one as one would have wanted ;-) … .
