topic^^

and where can I download it from?

I use webwasher, just do a google or ask.com search for it, but then on the other hand my computer is fucked by cws at the moment, although I didn't have webwasher dl'd when I got it... I'll stop, before I confuse you more.

hell, i just use Google's pop-up blocking toolbar in my browser. it rocks, and i hardly even notice its there.

Or use a better browser than Internet Exploder, I suggest Mozilla, Mozilla Firefox, or Opera for PC, and Safari for Mac... All of which block popups by default and tend to load pages faster.

i would go with the netscape browser, i think its better than IE and it blocks popups

True dat! I have a Mac for my personal computer, so pop-ups are not a problem with Safari's built in pop-up blocker. For my home computer, I use IE, but I also use endpopups.com, which seems to work well.

I just wanted to know what the general concensus is for great pop-up blockers since a guy at work was asking me about it the other day.

Service pack 2 for windows xp kicks ass with the popus. Haven't had one since I installed it.

As mentioned by Big Nick, popup blocking is now part of IE on XP with SP2 installed.

Short of that, I find the Google toolbar extremely useful, so the inclusion of popup blocking in that is just icing on the cake.

I use yahoos. work good enough for me.

[zombieman]

Firefox, yo

[Moxio]

I use Firefox, so I don't get any popups at all.

The Google toolbar has a decent pop-up blocker. I'm using it right now.

[jbroush99]

[rvdrock]

[Chris Dillon]

my xp came with popsubtract and its pretty good. I test them by going to ign and clicking on my.ign if i get one asking me to go to my accout its not working but this one did it so i went back to it.

[redgopher]

Go get Mozilla or Firefox.

And Chris, Monster Hunter is horrible.

[Chris Dillon]

[GuilewasNK]

[Ebraum]

The Alexa toolbar Cheapy asked us to install has a great pop-up blocker

What do you mean "IR" popups?

If you mean Messenger (*NOT* MSN Messenger, just messages with "OK" buttons) because you are connected directly to the net without a firewall, reformat your computer, get a firewall, reinstall.
