Getting Rid of Popups
by Fran Combar, TriCounty PCUG, Oct 2001
    Tired of having pop-ups driving you insane when surfing. I recently came across a great little program that prevents them. Best of all it protects children on the Internet by preventing often inappropriate material from being displayed in pop-up windows.

    Pop-Up Stopper from Panicware, Inc. protects us from those infernal pop-ups and pop-unders that plague our peaceful browsing, and what's great about
this one is that if you WANT to view something, all you have to do is press CTRL or Shift while clicking a link to temporarily disable it. I love the control it offers...

    This is total freeware, not ad-ware or spyware, although you have the option to donate a nominal amount should you care to. Here is the link to check it out Panicware, Inc. - Pop-Up Stopper at http://www.panicware.com/
