04 November 2007: Block Pop-Ups Make your Internet experience faster, safer, and less cluttered by using a pop-up blocker to stop annoying Web advertisements from pestering you. This is one of the easiest things you can do to reduce online hassles — and it won’t cost you a cent.
There are two types of pop-up blockers:
• Built-In Blockers: The latest releases of popular Web browsers like Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Opera have pop-up blockers built into them. If your browser is outdated, this is a great reason to upgrade.
Note
To use Internet Explorer’s pop-up blocker, you must install Service Pack 2 from the Windows Update website.
• Toolbars: Several reputable companies offer free toolbars that hook into your Web browser to block pop-ups and provide Internet search capabilities.
For example:
• Yahoo Toolbar (http://toolbar.yahoo.com); also has an antispyware feature known as Anti-Spy
• MSN Toolbar (http://toolbar.msn.com)
• Google Toolbar (http://toolbar.google.com) |
