Posted by Sarcasma on 3/25/2002, 10:20 pm I'm pretty sure there are better programs out there as well, which I'd love to hear about from other wiser posters. --Previous Message--
Give PopUpKiller a try. It's not the best program, but if you have just one site (i.e. this board) that's making your life hell with popups it does the job. You may have to enter some info about the specific popup ads, but once it knows what urls/domains to kill, it does okay until the ad company switches over (usu. about 2 weeks). Then you have a few popups, add them in, and are back to blissful reading/posting, with the occasional *KABLOOEY* of popup destruction in the background.
