Try Google Toolbar 2.0: http://toolbar.google.com/.

Opera 7.11 browser does a fine job on its own blocking ads, except at mail.com;then I use IE 6 with the Google toolbar.

hi, i would watch what you download nowdays! there are several FREE popup stoppers that have a suprise for you, they have adware in them and generate popups for you. Always read the privacy policy and End User Liscense Agreement all the way(EULA or ULA)

i have two on my list and will vouch that they are safe
this one is small free and made by analogX (totally safe good guy)

The best web filter on the market by far is Proxomitron! It blocks pop-ups and also does many other very useful things plus it's free!! The learning curve is a little more difficult than some of the other pop-up stoppers but it is well worth the time and effort to learn how to use it.

I've always liked AdShield. When they went pay, I continued to use the old version. Switched to AdMuncher ($25) but continued to use AdShield. Now I see they have a free version again. Very unintrusive and blocks lots of ads in addition to popups. Shiny
