Can anybody recomend a good free pop up blocker? I am setting it up a custemer, so it would be nice if it was user friendly.

Thanks in advance.

Or just use the opera browser, It wont even let popus activate at all. Stops them before they happen.

Google Toolbar vote #2.. I have always been the type that despised those toolbars in IE, but as long as you pick the bar that does not report anything back it is fantastic.

Remmember people, he said he is setting up a customer, and it needs to be very simple.

One of the fundamental rules when dealing with customers is people do not like change. So what is less painfull to them, seeing a brand new browser "just" to block popups, seeing a toolbar inside their normal browser, or there may be an application that blocks popups as well as the Google toolbar but adds no toolbar.

Exactly, I am looking for a simple, no frills progam that runs behind the scenes and blocks them pop-ups. Any help would be appreciated.

Google toolbar here too.
My problem is getting rid of the spyware. I can't find a free program to get rid of it. I found a free one that FINDS it but it won't tell me where it is or delete it unless I fork over $30.
I already tried searching for it, didn't work

Adaware or SpyBot Search and Destroy are both free and remove the spyware just fine Nimbus.
