Note: Norton Firewall 2003 has a pretty good popup blocker included in it. It's a gigantic improvement over Firewall 2002 and I'd highly reccomend upgrading if you are using 2002 and hate those pesky popups.

Not exactly but close.
Opera Browser has a buiiltin Popup Killer.
Just press F12 and tell it to refuse popUp

I use Opera.

Opera is good but it is not nearly as secure as IE. I use it for simple browsing but anything of any importance, I use IE

I second that. It kills any other IE window that opens. To bypass this (i.e. when you want to follow a link here on the forums or just open a new window) hold down the CTRL key and then clik. Also by a simple double clik you can disable it through the system tray.

Webwasher's current freeware version, V. 3.x?, is a vast improvement over earlier versions. It does a lot more than block pop-ups. Good stuff.

Warning: it gives some software firewalls major indigestion -- Norton stuff up to 2002 in particular -- nothing that a re-install of the firewall won't cure, though.

I use this, and it's not so swell. It is free though!

Personally, I think Earthlink's popup blocker tool is the best! Earthlink may be a crappy ISP, but damn! do they know how to make a great, easy to use, effective popup blocker tool. Awesome I say.
