	I vow to destroy the Virtual Professor Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

For he doth invade even though I have a pop-up blocker. How doth he skirt my defenses so?!?!

I curse at him! From hell's heart, I stab at him! For hate's sake, I spit my last breath at him!

I don't know who the virtual proffesor is, but have you tried deleting all off-line internet content? (I know that some banners will still show with my add killer on, if they are still in my cache)

Do you have it set to "aggressive"? I never get pop-ups with it... although I have to "override" a lot...

Ah, that mayest be it. Now I have set it to "aggressive" mode and eagerly anticipate the death of the knavish professor.

Thank ye, good subject. You may kiss the ring if you wish.

I don't use the PanicWare-blocker, but is there a "black list" in the program?
If there is, you could add the Professor to the black list of popups that will always be closed.

The reason I ask this is because I use XFX' PopUp Killer, which they sadly enough stopped developing, but I can still expand my black list

No, there's no blacklist.

When set to "aggressive" mode, it flat-out shuts down ANY attempt to spawn a new IE window.

This can be a pain on some websites that use javascript and such to gently spawn new windows (even the manual override can leave the site inoperative), but, for the most part, I really, really like it.

While we're on the subject, I must extend my enthusiastic endorsement for the SpamPal spam filter. It works for most pop3 e-mail clients, and it's done wonders to essentially eliminate spam in my inbox. It DOES include a blacklist option for the rare SPAM message that gets through the filter.

No "toolbar." No spyware. No ads. Nothing. Just a free product by an angry Brit who wrote a better spam filter and was kind enough to share it with the masses.

I am reminded (for reasons unknown) of the following exchange from "Three Amigos":



El Guapo: (trying to recall his exploits with various bandits in his gang - not recognizing Chevy Chase) : Ahh....

Chevy Chase: (poorly disguiesed as a bandit):.... Jose...

El Guapo: .. ah, yes... Jose... remember when we.. uhh...

Chevy Chase: ... raided the village!

El Guapo: Ah, yes... we raided the village... and

Chevy Chase:... stole the women!

El Guapo: Yes! We stole the women!.... and....

Chevy Chase: ...umm... raped the horses!

El Guapo: Yes! We raped the horses!

** brief, uncomfortable silence **

El Guapo: Who the hell are you?!?

I know what you mean. My filter isn't all too intelligent at times as well, I can't visit some information pages on ADSL o_O

Oh well, most of the times I browse with Opera anyway, which has an excellent popup blocking feature built-in (same problem with the JS popups on some sites though, but there's nothing much you can do about that).
