Ben Wallace!!! :lol:

I don't really use one. I'm pretty satisfied with the pop-up blocker that comes with the Google Toolbar

Yeah, Mozilla is the shiat when it comes to browsers. And if there's any problems, there's usually a plug-in to fix it.

So go get it.

I have to say Firefox/Mozilla.
Especially with all the Plug-Ins you can download, like "Ad-Block" and "Foxy Tunes" (Y)

Or use Zone Alarm to prevent popups and spying at the same time.

Search google for "Spybot Search and Destroy" and "Ad-Aware". Those will both get rid of the stuff on your machine that causes pop-ups (won't stop everything, but combined with using Mozilla Firefox as your browser it's very good).

I use Google toolbar - its spyware free and the best pop-up blocker out there, it even outscored Microsoft SP2 pop-up blocker.

I have used many, including:

Stopkilla
yahoo
sp2
panickware
others

and google toolbar came out winning!

Plus I guard my sytem with:

Norton firewall/AV
WinPatrol
Windows AntiSpyware
Spybot and ad-ware
Boozuka
and otheres merijn tools
Asus A8N-SLI Premium
Amd Opteron 165
Corsair XMS 1GB DDR
XFX 6800XT 256GB DDR3
WD SATA 250GB

Google toolbar was excellent when I used Internet Explorer.

However, firefox browser ( safer,faster, better) is better since it has a built in popup stopper.

but yeah get adaware and spybot and run them every week or 2 just in case any spyware gets to you
