    Try Webwasher it is free for personal use.
    WebWasher
    Install it, then set your browser to route through the program, as webwasher is a filtering proxy. it works very well.
    Also, if you want to change your web browser I would suggest Slimbrowser as it has a built-in pop-up stopper, its Free also.

    Ok, are these pop-up's happening when you surf the internet, or are they when your using a chat program?
    I use Slimbrowser & webwasher, and never had a single pop-up while using them, so I do not understand your problem.
    The browser by default needs to be instructed to block, it wont do it automatically, and it is your IE browser just with an overlay.
    Can you drop a link of one of the offending websites which your having problems with pop-ups from.
    Webwasher will block pop-ups as well as in-line banners. I find your difficulty perplexing.

    ok to better understand what your problem is, please give alittle more info.
    Does it happen on websites? what exactly is it? a banner? where does it happen. Check the pinned topic for adware apps.
