    What's the Best Pop-Up Blocker
    Too many pop-ups. Way too many. Got Google, its not working any more. These pops were gone for a while now they are back and stronger than ever. Who knows the best free pop-up blocker available.

    I would also get Ad-Aware from www.lavasoftusa.com and clean out any spyware you have on your computer. If you have HEAPS of popups then spyware is often the cause.

    If Googles pop up stopper is no longer working to stop popups, then you don't really have a popup problem as much as a Spyware/Adware problem. Googles popup stopper is the best that I have ever seen so it has to be Spyware/Adware at this point.

    Remove the Spyware and you will remove the popups. I recommend Giant AntiSpyware. In an independent test, Giant was better than all others tested including Spybot, which didn't even come close. Although Spybot is totally free... free means nothing if it is not effective.

    I use Giant AntiSpyware whenever I go on service calls to remove spyware/adware from clients PC's. It is free to use for 15 days but well worth paying the annual renewal fee of $29.00. I'd pay double that as long as the product works and does what it is supposed to. This product WORKS!

    You may download a free trial of the software at the link below. Just click on "Products" and then "Free Downloads."
