128388	2003-03-15 10:05:00	Hi guys I receive a couple of newsletters from EMAZING.com each day and until now I have been keeping their incessant pop up adds under control with a freeware application called Free Surfer. It would seem that EMAZING have just upped the anti with their pop ups because Free Surfer is failing to kill them. I tried reinstalling it, then downloaded a later version, but it still failed to stop EMAZING’S pop ups. So just to prove that there is no customer loyalty in the world I have deleted Free surfer and downloaded another app. called Pop–Up–Stopper from Panicware (http://www.panicware.com/). This is blocking EMAZING’S pop-ups very well. Has anyone else had a similar experience with add blocking software lately? ?:| Cheers oldfart	oldfart (3118)
128389	2003-03-15 10:13:00	Well I downloaded the panicware software just a few days ago. The free version. I later went to go on my Internet banking (ANZ) The Log in is a popup.	Elephant (599)

I have not looked at configuring Pop-Up-Stopper yet. You probable get a feature to allow certain popups in one of the versions you pay for. Cheers oldfart ;-)	oldfart (3118)
