I need to know a good pop up blocker. I use firefox and have a defender pro pop up blocker, but still get them from time to time. I did a spyware check a few days ago but am still getting some. A free one would be helpful.

Firefox has its own -built in- pop up blocker that is very powerful.
Open Firefox, goto TOOLS, OPTIONS, WEBFEATURES.
Place a check inside the block Pop ups window click apply and OK.

This is the only setting I use and I visit alot of Ad supported sites that use pop-ups and I almost never have a problem. I dont see the need for any other pop up blockers.
