question on blocking unwanted webpages...

[rcsnoopy]

Hey all, i was just curious if there is any way to block unwanted ads. ie. when I am at yahoo.com i often get the stupid "buy this video camera" window that pops up. Is there any way to dismantle the popping up of unintentional windows. or a way to block these adds? Thanks.

It can take a little training, but it's the best pop-up killer (no pun intended) that I've seen.

A hint for after you get it installed: add the following lines to its list:

http://ads.*
http://ad.*
http://adserver*
http://m.doubleclick.net*
http://www.casinopopup*
http://www.gamblink.com*

This kills a LOT of pop-ups...
