pop-up killer

Are there any good pop-up killers out there for free - or at least a trial one - these popups are beggining to get on my nerves....

Agreed.... Switched to the moz a few months ago, I don't remember the last time an unwanted pop up appeared. And you don't have to run extra programs for it.

Another nice thing in mozilla is that you can disabe images coming from another server, so you don't get ads!

Go to Edit > Preferences > Privacy and Security > Images > and select "accept images that come from the originating server only".
