It's a DNS cache and DNS firewall in one, blocks unwanted system and web traffic at the os level. preloaded with ~ 3 million bad domains, it also can block telemetry and automatic updates and anything you want by simple drag and drop in a 30 second live view or by selecting and checking or unchecking an item in the log.
Blocks ~80 to 90% of the DNS requests.
block lists contain ~3 million domains
It runs at user level and can also be configured to filter the LAN traffic, simply by setting a static ip on the host machine and setting your routers dns to use the static IP as the DNS resolver. That way you can filter the requests from other PC,s phones and tablets on the LAN and it will still failover to external DNS should you turn your host machine off.
Currently its x64 windows only

you can use it portably or install is but if you use it portably you still need control of the machine to set the dns to either the static IP of machine or localhost 127.0.0.1
1) On first install, it won't be 100% effective until you restart the computer as the windows dns cache will still be active
2) You also need to disable IPV6, it's temporary.
3) Turn off secure dns in your browser. Go to setting tab and search for dns.
