Popping Annoyance

It thinks it's not so bad now that we've gotten a decent firewall and popup blocker, but there was a time when I dreaded, yes actually feared, going online. Those annoying pop ups would practically take over the computer! And worst, many of them were not safe for kids to see, so we needed a pop up solution fast. We tried the free stuff that comes with the tool bars first, and they weren't bad. If you do light or moderate surfing, they will probably suffice. But if, like my daughters you frequent interactive sites, then it is probably a good investment to buy something that will stop these annoyances that also carry viruses.
