MSN 9

This is interesting I wonder if Roadrunner is doing this
as a reaction to MSN 9 who bundles McAfee antivirus/firewall
in with their service. McAfee also has a security website.
MSN 9 also has the best pop-up blocker I have yet seen.

It seems that more and more spam blocking software is using input from the consumers as to what is spam. Like so many others on this forum have stated the only way to control spyware and spam is on your own system. Of course we will have politicians touting their passage of what they call land-mark legislation banning spam. This coming from a person who doesn't know the difference between a bit and a byte.

Popup Stopper from panicware (old version) v2.6
this is the version before you had to buy the pro for full features... 100% blocks! I control what comes thru via the CTRL and SHIFT keys...

Not as good as Mozilla..I don't get any popups,not even the ones that slide through,Google tool bar works better than Popup stopper.


Yeahwhatever

@comcast.n

anything works better then the current version of Popupstopper... v2.6 as posted above is a very old version you can't get anymore.. it has an aggressive mode to where it stops 100% of all popups including if you right-click on a link and select open in new window... but to allow those thru just hold down the CTRL or SHIFT keys and bam there you go... I just like being 100% incontrol of popups, and not letting the progy figure out what comes and what goes... that's just me...
