    I don't get any popups from this site, but I want some anti-popup software too. Sometimes I get some when I'm not even using the internet!

    You can opt-out of a LOT of popup advertising campaigns. Goto http://technoerotica.net/mylog/optouts.html and optout of all of them and you'll see a drastic reduction of popup ads. Also, switch from kazaa to kazaa lite and you'll lose another crapload of popup ads.

    Can't help you out on the popup ad blocker programs though.

    The real problem with some popup programs is they sometimes stop you from opening up your own browsers, while others miss quite a few real popup ads...

    Thanks Kenny I just opted out off all the campaigns. Hopefully I'll see a big reduction in pop-ups now
