Opera has a built in pop-up blocker. :01:
Pop-up Blockers
For IE: Google Toolbar
Other: Mozilla Firefox 1.0
Adware / Spyware Removal
Ad-Aware
SpyBot S&D
Spy Sweeper
I recommend using all 3 ad/spyware software.
Yup good pop up blocker would be the mozilla browser ( havent seen a pop up in along while because of it :D )
For IE , google toolbar seems to be the only good free one.... but some pop ups from some sites have been able to bypass it....
With IE just get the service pack 2 and a pop up blocker adds onto IE and it works great but overall I just use firefox
For a pop up blocker and ads blocker, use Supertrick XG 1.6, its an excellent utility that blocks millions of unwanted ad servers and scam sites.
Supertrick Xg
As for a browser pop-up blocker I use maxthon which also has a web ads blocker, float ad blocker and an activex blocker.You can get it @
Maxthon
For adware and spyware I use Ad-Aware and Spybot Search & Destroy. Both are excellent and free. You can also get it @ nsane's site (www.nsane.tk)
The firefox built in one works great. :01:
But anyway, there's more popupblocker suggestion here: http://tvg.pinecurtain.net/index.php...le=security#pp
