Is there a way....

To make it so your browser doesn't allow popup windows?

I am getting SICK TO DEATH of ads for the net's largest casino, and would I like 12 different cell phones, and how bout a mini cam I can carry anywhere with complete privacy?


There has GOT to be a way! Please... tell me there's a way....

Yeah, I think there is.

There's a program called AdBuster that can handle that for you. I've yet to download it, but now, having closed my gazillionth popup ad for the X-Cam, I'm about to do so.

And, from what I've heard, it's free. And there are at least a couple more programs like it out there, too. I just can't come up with their names offhand.

I believe turning off java script will eliminate much of this, the trade off being it will eliminate parts of many sites as well.

Those damn pop-ups are the most annoying thing in the world.

Even MORE annoying, are the ones set to pop up a new one when you close the first. Those REALLY suck.

I was looking for pics from A Knights Tale earlier, and GAWD, every time I cliecked to enlarge a pic, I got 3 brand new ads. I get so frustrated with those sites that they get closed out and I don't go back.

Go to cnet.com and do a search for pop-up killers or something like that. You should be able to find several programs.

Are these pop up ads from websites, or do you have winad running on your computer?

 

[Gilly Bean]

From websites. No winad, or anything like that.

The iCab will let you have ********** AND turn them off. It does the two seperately
