Subject: Need suggestions please
Written By: princessofpop on 02/05/03 at 11:29 a.m.
Because I have a Cable connection and my comp stays online all the time, I need to find something to block out all these pop-up ads I get all day long. I get TONS of them even though I delete cookies often! So is there anything on the market that I can buy (software) that can help? Please share any suggestions or experiences.
THANK YOU MUCH! ;D

I have been using this one recently. It kills any new window, but in case you need to open a java window or a new browser window you can hold the control key and it disables the pop up killer temprorarily.

I use this popup killer
http://www.riscinteractive.com/~robm/PopUpKiller.exe (2.7MB)
It's free and works well for most popups. It will try to guess which windows are popups or you can simply tell it (by double clicking in a list)
