I know it is just a RC2 right now, but the Pop-Up blocker for I.E. that is
integrated within XP SP2 works very well.

Before deciding on a piece of software, make sure it works with any online
courseware or applications that you're using. We use WebCT and popup
blockers cause a significant number of problems. We don't officially
support any solution, but Netscape 7.x/Mozilla 1.x has a great pop-up
blocker built in.

Can anyone recommend a solution that would prevent an infestation of
pop-ups. We've implemented the use of several different utilities to
prevent such stuff from showing up with minimal success. I'm searching for
a more robust solution.
