Behind The Overlay Extension for Firefox and Chrome

Some websites will use an overlay to mask its content with a transparent background to force you to read a message before you can see the actual content.

I find this very annoying as every site will have a different way to close that overlay popup.

This extension solves this problem by offering you one button to close any overlay on any website you may ever encounter.


Requires no special permissions.

Since you do not click on the overlay, you are less at risk of downloading malware or other kind of malicious script.
