Annoying
 

Right when i go to some websites (and not all) I keep getting ads pop up all over the place. I have run Ad Aware, Spybot S&D and i have Spywareblaster installed, but i still get them. How can i stop it?

Re: Annoying
 

Get the google toolbar ... with built in popupblocker

Re: Annoying
 

Don't go to them?

Re: Annoying
 

The Google toolbar has a popup-stopper that is quite effective. And the Google toolbar is a very nice addition to IE.

Edit: thanks Nem :)

Re: Annoying
 

Then test it at... popuptest.com
Thanks, whoever repped me, made me go up one extra block :tu:

Re: Annoying
 

get windows SP2 which has a built in pop-up blocker, if not then the google bar.

Re: Annoying
 

The thing with SP2 is after its release it still has bugs according to M$. Ill go for the google toolbar.

Re: Annoying
 

Use an alternative browser that has popup / adbanner blockers built in.
eg Firefox

If you are an IE user then get myIE2 or Maxthon as it's now known.
It's a a frontend for IE, with all the whizzbangs, bells and whistles IE should have had. www.myie2.com

Re: Annoying
 

Adshield blocks popups as well.

Re: Annoying
 

I use (and purchased) zero popup which is v4, just looked on their website and they are now upto version 8!!!

I've never had a problem with this...allows you to create whitelists and all sorts.

website is www.tooto.com btw

Re: Annoying
 

Mozilla Firefox !

Since installing that browser and ditching Internet Explorer I've had no pop ups at all.

Also use the Thunderbird mail program from them too. Its much better than Microsofts outlook and both the browser and mail application have a million less vulnerabilities and security flaws that IE has.
