I voted "other" because some "popup blockers" don't even have to be a specific program designed for blocking popups.
I use Opera 7.5 (licensed, love it) and when I don't use Opera, I use Firefox (very good). Without having to use IE for anything other than updates, I can ignore about 98% of the popups that occur with IE (without the Google toolbar installed) and by turning the messenger service off, I can avoid the rest.
Opera's "refuse unwanted" is the best, IMHO.
I use firefox to block all my stuff but when I use IE I use what used to be a free program called Freesurfer, always worked great and still does. You can get it from download.com
I was wondering if anyone else was giong to mention EMS FreeSurfer. On the rare occasions I use IE, I rely on that little program. Most of the time I'm on Firefox though.
When using IE: IESpyad+Proxmitron...sometimes just Avant Browser does the trick :)
When using Mozilla: Multizilla+Adblock...pretty smooth sailing thus far...
That's about it....oh and of course an extensive Hosts file!
