Richard,
A simple method of avoiding many of these is to create (or modify) the hosts file on your computer (on windows systems, in the windows directory). This is a text file (with no extension, so open or create same using notepad, save it as text, remove the .txt extension when saving). The contents should look similar to the following: 127.0.0.1 207-87-18-203.wsmg.digex.net 127.0.0.1 garden.ngadcenter.net 127.0.0.1 ogilvy.ngadcenter.net 127.0.0.1 responsemedia-ad.flycast.com 127.0.0.1 suissa-ad.flycast.com 127.0.0.1 ugo.eu-adcenter.net 127.0.0.1 vnu.eu-adcenter.net 127.0.0.1 a32.g.a.yimg.com 127.0.0.1 ad-adex3.flycast.com 127.0.0.1 ad.adsmart.net 127.0.0.1 ad.ca.doubleclick.net 127.0.0.1 ad.de.doubleclick.net 127.0.0.1 ad.doubleclick.net 127.0.0.1 ad.fr.doubleclick.net 127.0.0.1 trafficmarketplace.com You can continuously append to the file (or find a regularly updated one on the net). Effectively, what this does is tell your computer that the host (destination of the link) named above is located on your own system. Yahoo (and others) now offer free popup blockers for the toolbar of your browser. This, too, can be used. The hosts file has the advantage of being more difficult to beat with a technological solution from the remote side and catches some the blockers do not. Rick "Oci-One Kanubi" wrote in message om...

If you are using netscape, just check the preferences under privacy and security, and stop al popups (except those from sites you want to use them).
