    A link to Lastmeasure is relevant! We're at the forefront of popup blocker busting, if we say so ourselves.

    Mozilla has not failed me once. Not a single ad in nearly a year has come through. And, quite simply, its features, security, and ease of use crush anything else out there right now, imho.
    When I was using IE, there were times I had to just turn off my computer because the pop-ups were popping up faster than I could close them, eating up all my resources in the process.
    Oh, and it's never crashed on me either.
