    Hi,
    A month or two back there was a forum thread asking members for their favourite porno sites. One comment that frequently came through was that members were sick of the pop-up sites appearing.
    With a 12 year old and two 6 year olds now frequently accessing the internet I'm looking for recommendations on pop-up blocking software. At the moment I'm trying out Pop-Up Stopper from Panicware, it appears to be working OK, but has anybody other suggestions I could try out.
    Thanks in advance.

    Panicware's Pop-up stopper is probably the best software I've seen for preventing pop-ups. I don't view pornography, but do visit newspaper and CNN-type sites throughout the day, which often times have annoying advertisments. For this, the program works quite well, so long as you have the most recent update. Just as an aside, another good program to have if you surf the internet is AdSubtract, a free application that removes advertisments and other unwanted things from your internet experience. I never surf or read the Tribune/CNN without them on! Now if only there were a way to get rid of those annoying flash animations and video advertisments.....

    videoguy79 & kwag,
    Thanks for the prompt replys. Pop-up Stopper is running great and I'll be downloading AdSubtract as well.
    Freely sharing information like this is what helps to make VCDHelp such a great site.
    I hope others benefit from this thread as well.
