Annoying pop up's.

[Andrew Staley]

This is a work related issue so any help would be appreciated.

How can I prevent Pop Up windows from appearing within IE. I would rather
not use an external program as most of the seem to be rubbish, either don't
block all the windows or block you from opening certain windows.

I remember that there is a security setting that can be altered to stop this
from occurring but cant for the life of me think which setting it is that
has to be turned off.

Thanks in advance, Andrew.

PS. Just would like to say the popup killer in XP SP2(Beta) is looking like
being a great implementation as it so far has only blocked popup's that I
myself have not asked to be opened, can't wait for this to go final.

Greetings --

For regular Internet pop-ups, you might try the free 12Ghosts
Popup-killer from http://12ghosts.com/ghosts/popup.htm, Pop-Up Stopper
from http://www.panicware.com/, or the Google Toolbar from
http://toolbar.google.com/, which is what I use.
