- Rated 1 out of 5by ZevSua, 3 years agoВ допоолнениях мозиллы написано как бесплатное. Скачиваеш - требует деньги. Или появляется кнопка - скачать бесплатно!! После нажатия на кнопку - скачивается ккаято программа. Которая вмешивается в реестр итребует куча прав и доступа. ТО антивирус выскочил, то требует надать права в мозилле.
Скорее всего программой собирают данные или будут спамить. Программа качается отдельно по ссылке которая есть прямо в приложении - так же вирусы распостранять можно - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16938397, 3 years ago

- Rated 3 out of 5by TELLALL4ALL, 4 years ago11-3-2022: Pleasantly surprised that this outfit has VERY GOOD customer support. Answered my email immediatley with detailed answer.
Watch for dns leaks and test for them. Will change to ip you didn't ask for if other ips are filled up, so watch for this. Working on getting firewall settings for this addon, cuz I hate having to disable my fw to use it.
You cannot connect if firewall is active. Still no way to change port number assigned. Have not experienced any OBVIOUS hacks using this. It is the only free way to get into many websites that other "free" vpns cannot touch. I might actually pay for it if they can resolve the firewall and change of ip thing, but probably they cannot. Updated to 3 stars
Disables windows firewall allowing your system to be hacked. Dangerous add-on, not safe. Very unstable cannot keep connections due to hackers. Man in the middle attacks. Surely there is someone out there that can offer something better than this. Rarely use it anymore. - Rated 3 out of 5by USER-EXPERIENCEONLY, 4 years ago1-29-24: Do not download their program for "browser helper". Use ONLY the stand alone program that does NOT integrate with browsers. Their download program is VERY intrusive and requires removal from windows add/remove and I have had it come back w/out my knowledge which could be a real security risk. Their tech support is top notch and answers inquiries quickly. Their feed is SLOWWW changes IPS w/out your approval or knowledge until you check, so you could be surfing from Lagos Nigeria when you least expect it. US server almost non-existent Not every site is fooled and some will block you but most will not. Does not work with Craigslist, and CL sucks anyways.
11-7-23: Good support. Answers emails and actually reads yours. Do not install the browser helper-installs a program that you must use windows to uninstall as it loads w/out your permission and does so even if blocked by firewall. Must be removed by windows remove pgm-very intrusive. Free tuxler is ok but some sites recognize it and block it, such as google, so they are detecting you're using a proxy even if you disable webrtc and block it. Too few free ip changes leaving you with Pakistan when you want USA.
9-2022: It would be nice if some company could come up with a similar vpn that actually works WITHOUT it d/connecting to some place in africa w/out your knowledge. Sure tell everyone you're in Africa when you selected NYC? hhahahahahah what a joke. Pay for this bs? Not me.
6-2022: Flakey to the max. On redeeming quality is it gets you through. Hacked extension will send you to Africa IP without any warning.
Cannot be used with firewall, requires all your defenses be down to use it.
But, as I said it does get u thru.
1-10-22: Noticeable improvement. They need to offer a way to select cities for free users. Some sites are blocking you because they keep changing your ip, often without your input. Slow to connect, often have to make several attempts.
11-10-21: this review applies to the stand alone tuxler program.I would never use it as an addon to FOX as it is a dangerous program, increeasing your rise of hackers since you must disable your firewall to use it. Sites are now detecting this addon and blocking connections to their site as a result. It is not longer a free ticket to proxy banning websites, but instead puts you on a block this connection list and you will get cannot connect error message, regardless of which country/proxy you select under tuxler. I another words for these sites it is useless. If you don't have a REAL residental proxy you will not be able to connect with tuxler and they might even delete your account. Also frequent problems slow or no loading of the program where you cannot even get a connection to anything. Junk not worth paying for.
10-3-21 New problem, connect connect to main server. As if THEIR/ISP firewall is blocking connection. Requires changing ISPs or mac address to get in. Either blocked or extremely slow to connect. Still problems with initial given IP (residential) working-have to change it usually first page load. It's dangerous to have to disable your firewall to use this program, open invitation to be seriously hacked. Also quite slow, sometimes unuseably slow They have a new competitor but for chrome only and it's not any good. This is the only vpn that does what it does, even if incredibly badly, haha. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16676119, 4 years ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by dastraightdope, 4 years agoSites that don't want you are being actively blocked by either Tuxler or third parties using Tuxler. So the advantages of "residential" vpns quickly disappear. Very slow, frequent disconnects and changes in IP that you did not select. No privacy policy-ur data (and probably ur a** belongs to them so don't use it for anything important. I will say this. It is free, but that's not saying much. And it will get you through many sites that block proxies. But very unreliable and troublesome to use it.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 16002070, 5 years agoHow this even should work?
"Tuxler Chrome Application"
This addon requires Tuxler Application to work.
"After installing this extension you will be directed to Application installation process." and you can't do a sh without it.
and another one: "Tuxler Chrome Application is requied to start Tuxler Plugin"....This is FIREFOX, not Chrome!
Firefox/76.0.1 == Imo it looks overrated and I suppose, that owner(s) are giving bigger stars than it actually needs.
This addon didn't work for me without that another thingy. I'm disappointed.
Check permissions and "Make sure you trust it before installing." - Rated 2 out of 5by Bryan Comino, 5 years ago
