Does any one have an opinion on this software and any other pop up blockers. So far this one seems OK. Joshuacat This post has been edited by Joshuacat: Jan 1 2005, 01:03 PM -------------------- JC

The best pop-up blocker I've found:
 Click Logo Firefox Also POW!, from AnalogX, is pretty good. -------------------- I love being married.

I agree with tg1911, Firefox is great
I also use Googlebar when I have to use IE. For extra I use Proxomitron which is excellent. --------------------  A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty. -Sir Winston Churchill |

I also have FireFox and it works well.
One issue I did have with it, and the reason I went back to IE for most surfing, is it hung up everytime I tried to open a PDF document...maybe there is a fix..or it is local to my computer..anyways thanks for the replies so far. Joshuacat -------------------- JC

I use the Mozilla Suite, and have no popups; using either web browser should eliminate popups as well as the need for extra applications to do what a browser should do in the first place. FF is small, easy to install, and simply imports IE favourites; it is faster and certainly more secure than MS browsers.
