ITshield Firewall and popup window
Hi,

I am using ITShield Firewall to remove popup windows and floating ads. It does very well. But sometimes, I still get a few popup windows. for example, I get it when I log out of mail@yahoo.

I do not want any popup windows. Can anyone tell me how to do it?

Try Google Toolbar, which includes a Pop-up blocker that works very well.

Buh Bye!

Me

I have to second that. The google toobar, with the intrusive stuff turned off, works great. Better than any other popup blocker I've tried.

Since I've been using this new feature for the last 3 weeks, I've not had one stray popup.

Yea, some times it works too well...:)

Like with using websites like McAfee that uses popups for updating virus definitions...I have to turn off the popup blocker when my computer visits that website for virus definition updates.

Buh Bye!

I know what you mean, I ran into that checking on the PC version of HALO at the MS site. I couldn't figure out why the page wouldn't load, turned out to be an age verification check box in a pop up. Fortunately it's easy to temporarily disable it.
