Try popup stopper from panicware

The Proxomitron is an excellent ad proxy server. All web traffic is filtered through and ads, ad links, and popups are blocked. It's also very easy to configure and disable if you need as well. The "cool" programs thread sticked at the top of this forum has some other good links too.

are any of the freeware popup ad stoppers able to be set so auto popups dont appear but clicked javavscript windows do open?

That's what I use. Not that versatile but it works great for my basic purposes.

FOBSIDE,
The proxomitron's filters are pretty good, so clicked windows will come up when you want them, but ads won't by default. Even if it's "overfiltering", you can disable it in two clicks, although I've never needed to...

Just use Mozilla...handles popups nicely without killing the ones you actually want.

What does Mozilla do to filter out popups? (Hope 1.0 comes out soon, RC1 doesn't seem to like my PC)

I second popup stopper from Panicware. It's awesome!

I third pop up stopper from panic ware... It's free too!

Mozilla has an option "Open unrequested windows" which you can check or uncheck. Takes care of popups quite nicely.

Another vote for mozilla. I don't see any pop-ups. And not many banners either 😀

Panicware seems to have gotten a lot better since I last used it, but I'm partial to Meaya myself.

I use Exit Killer as it works for both IE and Netscape and it seems to work well for me.

Another vote for Pop Up Stopper. ZoneAlarm 3 also handles 'em. AdSubtract is another non-free proggy which really takes care of all the annoying crap well.

 

[FOBSIDE]

do any of these stop popups based on domain name?

To bring in some variation to suggestions I use PopUpCop. Few reasons why:

- The main reason: it sits in IE toolbar and not in system tray
- prevents sites from resizing IE windows and lots of other nasty stuff like sites disabling right mouse button etc.
- I can create lists to allow popups from certain sites

I agree, Popup Cop works very well. I even bought myself a copy, its that good. Give it a try.
