Any suggestions on a good Pop-up blocker program?

Lately, I've been getting annoying pop-ups online and kinda getting tired of them, so I figured I'd search out for a pop-up blocker program, but found way too many. Any good ones that I should try? .

Try the popup stopper from www.panicware.com its the one I use.
The only complaint I have about it, if it can be called a complaint, is that it stops every popup even the ones when you press on a link.

Like Kane, I use MyIE2 and its build-in pop-up blocker. It's my favourite internet browser at the moment.

You gotta be careful w/ these adblockers. They often contain spyware themselves.

I suggest changing your browser to Mozilla's Phoenix:

http://www.mozilla.org/projects/phoenix/

It's a super streamlined 5 meg browser and it's perfectly compatible w/ all sites I've ever tried. It loads quickly and has the option of tabs if you don't want a new window for each new webpage. The adblocking is integrated and very good. It will warn you before a page sends you a popup, and you have the choice of taking it or not, as you often need the popup windows to do stuff.
