The options are disabled because you selected the option Prevent access to options for this block set at times when these sites are blocked and now those sites are blocked (hence the options are currently inaccessible). The purpose of this option is to allow users to prevent themselves from easily changing the settings once the sites have been blocked, but in a way that doesn’t prevent access to all LeechBlock options. If you really need to change the settings for the block set before the blocking period has ended, you can do so as follows: • Enter “about:config” (without quotes) into the location bar of your Firefox browser. • Enter “extensions.leechblock.prevOpts” (without quotes) into the Filter field. • You should see a list of six browser preferences displayed, corresponding to the six block sets. Double-click on the preference for the relevant block set, to change its value from true to false. • You should now be able to change the settings for that block set.
