I strongly recommend AKiller from Source Forge. I found that with other pop-up closing programs, they would close pop-ups that I wanted to open, like my Yahoo address book. With AKiller, you choose the title of the window that you want closed, like Casino Gambling - Microsoft Internet Explorer and it automatically closes it. This way, only the pop-ups that you want closed will close.

It does take a little while to be effective, but I have been using it for over a year now and have built up a large list of pop-ups to close, which I'd be happy to send you by email. (The program can bundle your list as a savable file.)


By the way, this is a very popular question at our computer forums. Read some other users' recommendations by clicking here.

Internet Explorer really lags behind it's comptetition. Mozilla/Netscape, Firebird, and Opera all have built-in popup blocking.

All of the browsers I just mentioned are free, so why not give one a try?
