July 14, 200224 yr Long ago someone suggested Proxomitron as an ad-blocking software, so today I thought I should take my finger out of my butt and install this app.I was very impressed with it, beats the socks off Webwasher, and any pop up killer apps! After I installed and configured IE with the proxy information, I had to do nothing further! Proxomitron was already hiding banners and advertisements. Even 100% blocked all the nasty popup ads you get at Sharereactor.com and Cracks.am10 out of 10!
July 14, 200224 yr Author by the way, you might find that the Proxomitron's UI is very colourful which would make you go "ewwww!" lolGo to config, and click on 'Don't use Textures'. You need to restart the app for it to take effect.
July 14, 200224 yr sounds good,hows about a link though?that way we could have a look as-well without having to do a search.
July 15, 200224 yr Author heh sorry, there's always google though... got it in one page.Anyway here's the link:http://proxomitron.org/
July 15, 200224 yr Hmmm, i need a Pop-Up killer, one that will work good with XP and not interfer. I heard stuff about this, some good some not. Anyone else know a good pop-up-killer?!
July 15, 200224 yr Meaya Software makes the best popup killerPopup Killer Surf to your hearts content with no popups at all. It's not free but after trying all the free ones,this is it for me and it works right with XP.

Anyone else know a good pop-up-killer?!Why not try Proxomitron like I suggested in the first post? Its stopped all rogue popups for the last 2 days of using it Proxomitron also lets the friendly ones get through.

July 15, 200224 yr MSFN has popups? I have never seen one.nah, just once in a while when i get PM's, it pops up a window
July 15, 200224 yr Author ahh.. I won't use Meaya then.. Proxomitron requires no whitelisting whatsoever, its clever config files allows popups from the site urls you're on.. and not from external locations. Most (or probably all) rogue banner ads come from external locations.
