I use Mozilla's browser, which includes an option to block pop-ups, cookies from specific sites, images from specific sites and in general is a much better browser than IE.

i get alot less than i used to, and THANKFULLY never get any HERE!
 if you ever get that dam# X-10 camera pop-up started on your computer, go to their site where they have a button to stop it for at least 30 days. i can not for the life of me understand WHY they are allowed to operate in the fashion they do.

I downloaded the pop-up blocker software that is free to earthlink/mindspring customers, and it is excellent. It is itegrated into your browser, and VERY FEW pop-ups ever get past it. If you're on a site where you DO want links to pop-up when you click on them, you can disable it, or hold the "ctrl" button while clicking. Very nice software. I don't know if it's available to non-customers...It may be, for a price.

I'd like to find some way to redirect those damn pop-ups back to the source in an endless loop...its time for guerilla warfare!!
Everyone gets their shorts in a knot when the government monitors anything...yet we ignore the significant intrusion into our privacy by marketing pirates.
