Just do this

When a pop up appears right click in the window get properties then copy the base url to clipboard.

Then go to tools- internet options- security tab- restricted sites- . Then click on sites button and paste the URL you copied as a restricted site. No more pop ups from that site. And no programs to download that takes up system resources.


Thing I hate about Pop Up Killer is when it activates and kills a pop up, my scrolling touchpad no longer works. I have to minimize then restore the window again before the scrolling works.

Big fan of AnalogX Pow.
Popup stopper closes windows that sites spawn - but some of them are windows I want.
Pow allows you to tell it to kill it, then you can kill all with similar names, same domain, etc. and you are good to go!
