664, but this computer is new. I just built it in December.

It was up to 5000+ on my old system when I wiped the drive and reloaded XP.

What's a pop-up?

<wonders where people are surfing to hit the thousands of popups>
I don't have google toolbar, but still haven't found popups to be a nuisance.

8,981 at the moment. Checking ESPN.com and NYTimes.com like ten times a day each helps. :)

I found google toolbar to be only average at best at stopping all types of popups. I got rid of it and got PopUpCop instead. Much much better.

4447 for me. It has stopped working at boston.com for me though. :( I guess they found a way around it.

I hate those popups that go full screen and play a movie trailer. They don't seemed to be blocked by any popup blocker I've tried.
