Has anyone else noticed that more and more popups are getting through the goole toolbar. Today i had a total of 20 popups!!! usually maybe 1 or 2 get through in a day. But since like the last month more and more are getting through.

Yeah, I've noticed that too, them evil pop-up programmers are getting smart. But it still does block quite a few though.

New versions of google/pop-up stopper are coming up.
Maybe you can tell them that.

Panicware POP-Up stopper basic i use its cracked of course its the simple one that goes on the bar where google toolbar would be and it blocks all pop-ups and if you wantto allowsomething u just hold down ALT then press link of thing that was being stopped by pop up blocker.

well i first had the popup blocker in ZA......... dint work that good.......

like bawa@Klite_user said, the best way to get rid of those pop-ups, is to get an alternate browser, like Opera or Firefox

getting an alternat browser also gives you the advantage that your system is ALOT safer (alot of leaks in IE that spyware/virii/adware writers use simply dont exist in these programs), plus they mostly use less resources, are are faster with surfing......

the only reason to keep IE i think is if you have an hotmail account........ but you can use 2 browsers....

Opera (needs a serial though) (http://www.opera.com/)
Firefox (FREE) (http://texturizer.net/firefox/)

(firefox also has a google toolbar built in!!!!)
