how long since people didn't review this program!
This is OFF THE TRAIN. Better retire with dignity than live longer without it... you know.
Just pass away with honors, proggie.

Who needs this anymore? Every new browser has a pop up blocker. People still using Netscape 4.78 and IE 5 out there or what...

This was the best popup killer on the market, not only because it was free, but because the whole program was well thought out and worked great. Unfortunately it is no longer available for download. If you can find a downloadable copy of it, GET IT!! I got the last version which was 1.45.4
Too bad the authors pulled it off of the market. It's still the best popup ad killer that I have found.

CAN YOU SAY FREEWARE???
This program may not be perfect, but it has won MANY wars with out of control popup sites!

Not bad. If you want an intelligent one, Zero Popup is. It is published at beta news at http://fileforum.betanew...tail.php3?fid=997512878

Netscape 6.2 users (and Mozilla 0.9.4+ users) can just enter the following line in their prefs.js file:
user_pref("dom.disable_open_during_load", true);
Add that somewhere in the middle of your prefs.js file while Netscape/Mozilla is closed, then start up Mozilla. Boom, the window.open() funtion is blocked for onload() and onunload(). The pop-up wont pop-up at all. Nice to use a browser with such nice things built-in huh? If your not sure where for prefs.js file is do a search for it and you will find it. No need for programs like this.

This is not bad. In term of size, performance and efficiency. Zero Popup at http://fileforum.betanew...tail.php3?fid=997512878 has much less size, only 98k and it is very efficient in term of system resource.

Popup Ad Filter (only 740Kb) by www.meaya.com is much smarter: it kills banners BEFORE they show up whereas PUK waits for them to display...
I used PUK before and tried some others. Now that I found PAF, my life changed ;)

Comparing with Zero Popup ( http://fileforum.betanew...tail.php3?fid=997512878 ), Pop-up Stopper (http://fileforum.betanew...tail.php3?fid=968208768), and others. I think this one is not as good as them.

Not mistakenly the best add killer around. Fast, systray icon, and I can configure how I want it to works.
I tried on WinNT, ME, and 98, with NN4 and IE5.
Such a beauty.

I must say that this program has a few minor bugs dealing with memory and the operating system. That is to be expected, I like the intergration of the port/proxy scanners and layout of the console. Just a betanews note, to guest... I'm not picking on ya but ranting on this site is annoying and flamers know better, thats what irc's are for. 8)

The program was fine but 'guest' just friggin sucks. Give me a break, 'guest' still hasn't caught up to the 1993 Mac for interface, and 'guest' is buggy as hell. Not to mention 'guest' is a total friggin pig, spewing memory all over the place. Crap..'guest' is just utter crap. 'guest' is switching to Linux cause 'guest' just freaking sucks. No more chances, 'guest' has burned us one too many times. adios 'guest'

I picked this up to use with Opera 3.62 (final). Unfortunately the program has no clue on how to deal with Opera's ability to deliver multiple home pages, allowing the first to pass and then killing all the others... Adjustment to the sensitivity had no effect, and I could find no way to "teach" it to let legitimate windows pass (despite enabling the option to supposedly allow doing so).
Also, couldn't get any change to the options to remain between sessions. Only the original configuration would return.
Additionally, using the Win98 Add/Remove to delete the program (using the program's uninstall) does not clean everything from the folder but, more importantly, leaves crud in the registry requiring manual deletion. You'll find it in your startup section, for one thing, and might wish to use SysInfo to uncheck the item to save your system time in checking for a removed program.
Did not check it with Netscape as there are far slimmer popup killing programs which work fine with that. Have yet to find one which works well, or at all, with Opera 3.62.

1: I have beta tested this program for a long time... possibly from 1997.
2: Simply put, it works with Windows 98, NT4 and Windows 2000.
3: I think that the pop up banner ads are kid of virus that can shoot down OS. Some web sites create html that open up anothter instance of Browser the moment you close it. Shaky DOS based OS (W95/w98)runs out of 64K resources by closing opend Internet Explorer Windows........
4: It is very rare that I give 5 ***** to program...but this one is exception (I have been using it for for 4 years)
