5:21 Firefox installs this Persona automatically.
5:28 * Often ads interfere with our internet experience.

6:14 Click on the Restart now link.

6:25 However, using ad blockers have some negative consequences.
6:30 * Some sites do not allow you to enter them when ad blocker is on.
6:35 * This is because, many free sites earn their income from ads.
