User reviews

Timer should be limited to sites you're actually limiting, or at least have the option to be. It gets in the way, is distracting, or is otherwise a problem on all other sites, but I really need a timer visible on the site I'm trying to limit.

Works pretty good, but too easy to delete it to bypass blocks.
