|
W9x/ME/NT/2000/XP |
| Free | |
Location on CD: software/windows/browse/ems_freesurfer/ | |
EMS Free Surfer is a popup window stopper that will kill those annoying, and increasingly visible, advertising pop-ups (can also stop animated GIFs and Flash). It has two surfing modes - natural and strict - that offer different levels of pop-up window protection.
The natural mode will close most common pop-ups and not interfere with your browsing. The strict mode closes any type of new browser window, legitimate or not - it can only be bypassed by pressing a hotkey on the keyboard. Free Surfer offers full IE Integration and lets you enter allowable pop-ups into a sites list with customisable rules.
