Do any of you know of any good pop up ad killers? Right now, I'm using the Google Tool Bar version, as well as the Yahoo Companion version. Are there better ones available?

Sometimes when you use two in conjunction, they will actually kill each other. Try turing one off, or uninstalling one all-together. I use Google toolbar and it blocks them all here at home and at work. When I installed it at home, I was recieving pop-ups at first, but then I loaded/ran ad-aware from Lava Soft and took out all my spyware. Now, I don't get any pop-ups.

Thanks Pappa Bear, I'll check out that spyware sight, and see if I can get some of this "stuff" cleaned up from my puter.

Be careful about that. Our IT person was going to clear one of my co-worker's machine's and ended up killing it

I use the yahoo companion tool bar, and it now comes with a pop-up blocker. I love it, and if you want something to pop-up, it gives you that option. No problems with it at all so far.

LMAO WooWoo
I really like the Yahoo companion toolbar pop up killer. It blocks EVERYTHING. (I deleted the google one...it was interferring with yahoo) It gives you the option to unblock things if you want to. I like that part too. ;D
