    I've looked at it a bit. It seems to have some pretty nice features but I haven't really tested any of them for stability or anything. It does do a pretty good job of killing pop-ups and banner ads....

    Tweak XP is one of the better ones out there. Why this piece of software isn't free I don't know You would have thought that MS would have included a Pop-Up killer & Ad Blocker within IE by now Oh I forgot, IE is an advert isn't it????

    Really where does it say that?
    And if so lets do a search on the registry every month too.

    I use TweakXP. It's much the same as TweakUI but rather than putting a contrll panel item in, you just have to run an executable. I use it to move around my special folders (favourites etc...) to my data drive and change a few of the visual effects.
