Seems to work well. $10 for both OS9 and OSX versions. You can test the OS9 and OSX version for 5 days free.
Once registered, the OSX version updates itself automatically.
There are numerous excellent apps for the Windoze platform, but none (until now) that I know of for Macs.
I've been looking for something like this for a very long time.
From the site:
<<Pop-Up Zapper is a shareware application for Mac that helps you by "zapping" away those annoying pop-up windows when you surf the web. Pop-Up Zapper is available in two versions- Pop-Up Zapper for Mac OS X and Pop-Up Zapper Lite for Mac OS 8.5, 8.6 and 9.x.
Pop-Up Zapper watches the work of your web browser. When the program identifies a pop-up window, it closes it just as you would, except quite a bit faster. Using Pop-Up Zapper for OS X, most of the time you will see a window flash open and then close on your screen. It moves quickly, however, so may not notice it at all. You can look at Pop-Up Zapper's counter on its Dock icon to see that it is working. With Pop-Up Zapper Lite, the process is completely transparent. You will never even see the pop-up window.
There are very few valid reasons for a pop-up window, but occasionally you will want to allow a legitimate pop-up. Pop-Up Zapper detects and closes only unwanted pop-up windows.
Pop-Up Zapper is Shareware, 10 U.S. dollars. You can run Pop-Up Zapper in evaluation mode for 5 days only, at which point it requires a license to continue working. >>
