Best Pop-up Blocker for Windows 98?

[crazyeddie]

Some friends running Windows 98 on an old PII system asked me about a pop-up blocker to use with their cable modem service. They were running the google pop-up blocker but uninstalled it because "it was too slow."

Anybody have other recommendations they might look at?

Not a bad thought, but folks running Windows 98 on their old PII aren't probably all that likely to download new browsers to try. They're pretty casual users, but this might be an option if I can't find anything to work with their old version of IE.

Can you even secure an old version of IE? Won't there be unpatched exploits?

I didn't like that one. It only closes the windows after they actually pop up.. unless it's changed in the years since I used it last..
