    Popupkiller They are looking for someone to take over it at Sourceforge....

    and

    Admuncher A 4k application (yes it's really small), Ad muncher rewrites the html before it reaches your browser. It's stopped 24 Megs of junk in the last month alone. Very useful when your on a crummy dialup.

    To eliminate pop up windows displayed in morpheus, try popupkiller (link). Just add any popup windows that it doesn't kill to your blacklist. Additionally, it takes care of those nasty geocities popups.

  4. PopUpKiller by FreakyGeeky · · Score: 2 · on The Successor To Popunder Ads?

    My favorite anti-popup tool for Windows is PopUpKiller. It works with IE, Netscape, Opera, and Mozilla. Check it out.

    Except that Popup Killer is non free. Does anyone know of a freeware solution?

    Someone mentioned this in another discussion a few weeks ago, but I think it bears repeating for those who run Windoze and might have missed or dismissed it.
    Popup Killer works quite well. Though it does occasionally miss a popup or close a window I actually wanted open (depending on the settings,) its benefits outweigh its drawbacks IMHO.

    It's not even just pr0n sites that are bad (though they're probably the worst.) wwf.com is pretty bad for popups.

    Yes, I know it's fake.

    ... I'll change my homepage from Sneakemail to PopUp Killer-- for those of us on Win32 who can't run Konquerer.

    I read on Webmonkey that a guy who tried the URL hack has determined that despite successfully setting a longer-till-expiration cookie, the 'pop-unders' still happen.

    He recommends Popup Killer for you Windows people.

  10. Sometimes It Takes Two by LISNews · · Score: 1 · on Public Outcry Over Popup Ads

    Lately I found for Windows a combination of Guidescope and PopUpKiller do a great job of blocking out:
    Cookies, popup windows, regular ads, and moost other things I'd rather not see.
    It takes some tweaking to get them to play nice together, but they do the job quite well.
