Why would I want Firefox to block pop-up advertisements when Opera does it already? At Sarah's house, right now, I have to use Firefox and it's horrible compared to what Opera is capable of. It's even worse than the last time I used it. I don't see any pop-up blocker, there's little functionality implemented with the new "tabs" and the browser itself runs slow and inefficiently compared to Opera.

If you get the professional edition of ad-aware, their pop-up blocker works quite well. Also, an easier way than to deal with pop-ups, disable java and javascript. That'll nearly neutralize all pop-ups.

The thread's purpose is for pop-up blockers, not our opinions on Firefox and Opera.

Please let's not turn this into an Opera vs Firefox thread. I don't care about which is better, I just use what I use.

Regardless if we use "shit" or a "superior browser" it still doesn't negate the fact that there ARE better pop-up blockers available rather than the ones built into a browser.

whoa.

Perhaps so, but that doesn't make Firefox any less shit than it already is.

How many pop-ups do you ppl get that you have to complain about them? 99.9% of my pop-ups come from "xxx" and "password" sites. If i don't count that then i get less then 5 pop-ups a week.

IE 6 no pop-up blocker at all.

I have yet to try FF 1.5, but Opera 8.5 does a decent enough job for me.

No, I'm not at Sarah's friends' house. I'm at her house, and I'm using the computer becuase I check various websites before I log off for the day - just like she does. I do wonder why I'm justifying myself to someone who probably hasn't had female companionship and tries to pretend he's lording it over someone else, though.
