Unhappy bloody pop ups

Can someone send me a link or point me in the direction of some good pop up and anti virus software. I haven't been online for months because i've moved house so can't remember where i got the last lot from, although it was definatly from someone on here. My browser is also affected so any help would be appreciated.

Have you tried the google toolbar? This has pop-up blockers. From www.google.com

I use nod32 for anti virus and have been very impressed with it. I use Spyware doctor which i run every week for spyware. This has a built in pop up blocker which works for internet explorer but as jpor said the google one does the job for blocking pop ups.

Or even updating Internet Explorer 6 to SP2 has built in pop-up blocking.

I've used Nod32 for the last few years and havent looked back, havent needed to run any spyware removal since either. It is an excellent program and uses very little resources unlike norton and the rest.

AD MUNCHER

its the best pop up blocker you will ever get,stops everything
some sites you will have to disable filtering to see the products,revolution is one of them.

I too use NOD32, it's fast and efficient. If you're after some decent anti spyware, there's Trend Anti Spyware and Webroot Spysweeper.
