Pop Up Busters, Help

Anyone know the best (preferably free) pop up buster program out there? Hopefully one that is unobtrusive, and uninstalls easy.

Thanks,
Jim

Alas, if only PopUp Killer were still available for download.

or even better try a better browser that comes with pop up blockers instead of needing to install a number of 3rd party apps to get the same effect!

Opera
Or Mozilla

they both come with good pop up stoppers built in, and FAR more secure than internet explorer (not to mention a million other benefits)

other than that, go to google.. their toolbar comes with a pop up stopper

I use "IE New Window Maximizer" from http://www.jiisoft.com/ It does ok...I don't know if any pop up killers are 100% effective. Some like the Google Tool Bar which has a pop up killer also.

Which one would you prefer?

Are they free? Can I attach my eBay toolbar to it?

Thanks,
Jim

Both free...I have no clue if you can attach your eBay tool bar. IE Maximizer runs from the tray next to the clock, sound etc.

What do you know.

PopUp Killer 1.45.4 is available. It's a French site but the program is in English.

The Google Toolbar is very good if you want to stick with IE.

Pop up Killer

Works perfectly! Thanks Evil Rick. Very unobtrusive and sits in the system tray. Thanks again.

Jim
