Pop up stopper - what's your choice
What do you think is the best pop up stopper. Can be fee, free or integrated into firewall.

I don't use a popup stopper per-sey, I have set up a Linux firewall / gateway (from www.clarkconnect.org) which has a nice transparent proxy which prevents popups.
I know it must work because I never see popups.
The only down side (if it is one!) is that you don't get to choose which popups are blocked. But I always see my PM popups, so I'm cool about it

I'm using the one that is built into that google beta that sits in a taskbar under the IE taskbars. It seems to work fine, and its nice to have google to hand as well.
