I’ve used it and found it to be buggy: It occasionally crashes without warning when it encounters a website it doesn’t like. And apparently it also runs an invisible window after end of session so you have to close it via either Task Manager or CCleaner. It will run like that for hours if you let it.

Doesn’t do a complete shutdown in other words. Never has.

Settings are really disappointing as well.
