Tutorial: Block pop-ups
Block Pop-Ups Tutorial
Ok this has been a problem for all of us, until now, there are many easy ways to eliminate this menace and I've decided to write a tutorial to help everyone out in the extermination of those annoying "pop-up" windows. Additionally you must keep in mind that many of theses so called "pop-up blockers" are full of spyware (see spyware removal) so you should only trust legitimate sources such as Yahoo and Google.
1.) Download Mozilla/Firefox they include a pop-up blocker
2.) If you use Internet Explorer, download the Google toolbar (http://www.toolbar.google.com) which not only is useful to quickly access Google, but its build in pop-up blocker is wonderful. The only disadvantage to this toolbar is that the pop-up blocker is only compatible with Internet Explorer 5.5 and up
