Anyone know of a good pop-up stopper that is free and you get to for however long, not some 30-day trial or some crap?

Dont use Internet Explorer, it is the worst browser on Earth.
Download Opera - the best browser I know (it has pop-up blocker too)

Other than Opera (the future love of your surfing-life), try Google Taskbar.

MyIE2 - http://www.myie2.com
Avant - http://www.avantbrowser.com

Try those, they both use IE as a base browser.

Internet explorer is ok

GET GOOGLE TOOLBAR! (blocks pop-ups and you can search from google by typing something under your address box)

Go to tools, then options, then select the General button on the left side of the box. It should be the first option on the right side of the page.

i once had a popup blocker that blocked popup ads however it poped up to notify you every time it blocked one .... infact that is more annoying becuase you see the same godam thing everytime i got rid of that bull[:-censored] and got THIS!!!!

presenting "clean my pc"

from downloads.com

Its simple right to the point, no spyware (if you care) and stays the [:-censored] outta your way. If you want to turn it off becuase it is blocking a popup that you want ... (youll see what i mean), theres a button that has your blocked amount, click it and it will allow popups until you click it again. VERY VERY AWSOME program and the best thing of all its free free free...

It hasn't let me down yet and I give it the Punishment Approval

You could use other browsers, but they often caused me more problems and take alot longer to download then this did.

If you need some insurance that it works 74,000 people downloaded it and 84 percent approved thats pretty good for downloads.com
