I just purchased this today and I couldn't be happier! I needed specific links in my html code to be hidden, and I have spent weeks trying various methods to do so. Nothing worked until I tried this. It installed fast and worked like a charm. Tested it on chrome, firefox, IE8 and IE9 and Safari. Thank you to the developer for a great product. PS.. wish you had discounts for purchase of multiple products. Would have got the content protector too.
The flaw in this extension starts from the idea that you can deliver HTML to a browser, without delivering it to someone who would be using that code (i.e. a web developer)
This extension is defeated by Chrome's "inspect element" function, user agent spoofing, and I'm sure many more functions. (try it out the demo page)

Owner's reply
Thanks for your review.
This extension will prevent most of the internet users from viewing your HTML code and make it harder from those who have the right knowledge and skill to view the HTML code.
With this extension, you will able to decrease the number of internet users who can easily view your HTML code from 100% to a community of people who have the right knowledge and skill.
