im looking for something that is lite and doesnt install a bar just under the adress bar also it must block the bad things and keep the good popups

What browser are you using? Firefox popup blocker works really good

i use ie6 ive got mozilla but i never use it
so im looking for one for  ie6

Another vote for Firefox and all of it's ownag3 ... @ Firefox

If you're using IE 6, or any IE, the best way to stop pop-ups is...TO NOT USE IT!!!!

IE = backdoors and code issues

Firefox =

best popup blocker so far for IE6 is the one that came along with XP's service pack 2 imho...

I say FireFox, even if you DO like IE, you'll love FireFox, it's awesome,

I realy don't have trouble with pop-ups. I hardly ever use a blocker. Google never works for me. It still allows popups. Yahoo just sucks. But the one that works the best is called KillPop. I got it off of downloads.com about a year ago. Still works fine fo me .

I just use Firefox. For blocking aggressive in-page banners and scripts i use the Adblock extension which allows you to block any site/banner/script/object and supports wildcards. Like: block "adserver?.crappyhost.com" or even just block "*ads*" .

You should make the change from IE to Firefox.

It's really useful in blocking popups and the tabbed windows are
SO sexy.  It's a good browser, it can handle things IE can.
The only thing I can think of is, uh... CSS.. Like scrollbar colors..
That's probably it


Firefox is sexy.

Opera browser is pretty good on blocking pop ups. It is fairly easy to use, works exactly same as Internet Explorer.

I recommend AD Hunter in Maxthons Browser (which is based on IE). Not only does it block popups but it also blocks ads on the page, banners, floating ads etc. I have never had a problem with it blocking something I wanted and it blocks all the things that are unwanted. http://www.maxthon.com

Well, I just installed the service pack 2 of Windows XP and I can tell you that in my opinion, the best one is simply Internet Explorer itself. The new version has an integrated popup blocker which works very well and that notifies you very gently (info bar with useful options) when something was blocked, with the possibility to cancel the action.

i agree patchou, i don't use IE but i have SP2 and when i'm forced to use IE it definitly does a good job.

Oh yeah Patchou, i know one of your friends that you used to code with in the days of msn messenger 3.x and 4.x

google toolbar

nah the inbuilt ones in both firefox and IE with winxp SP2 are the best third party ones are a waste of time and memory. Unless in the case of google bar which is really handy

not to mention spyware

hit ware pop up killer lite might have spelled it wrong but www.snapfiles.com should have it
