Help ... pop up ... :(

Negrolend · #1 (**permalink**) 7th July 2006

Please I need your advice.
I have vital issue of blocking pop ups and banners, while surfing the Web.
I tried several programs - some do not provide satisfy block results, some are not handy to use. Did anyone were interested in that kind of problem and can you advise something?
Please, support your suggestions with facts.

If you use Opera Browser, you can filter out all slow or harmful servers by creating a listfile with URI masks. Premade lists of adware and porn malware servers exist on the Internet.

An example:

Code:

[prefs]
prioritize excludelist=1

[include]
*

[exclude]

My listfile is 95 kB long and yet I don't feel any impact on performance. I have created a shortcut in Start menu, so I can quickly add a new entry.

So similar to this post. Yet no hyperlinks.

So similar ... Yes indeed.
And entirely off-topic of course. (Nothing to do with BSPlayer).
