Popup Blocker Question

Hey just a quick question everyone. I just got my new internet service all set up and everything, and I wanted to know if you guys knew of a reliable Pop-Up Blocker I could use for my browser. I know a lot of the Popup Blockers you can download contain Spyware, so I was wondering if you guys knew of any safe popup blockers I could download. Thanks.

Yahoo toolbar works pretty good. So does the Google toolbar.

Google toolbar has a very good built in popup blocker with a nice search bar. To provide privacy, select disable advanced features when installing.


And also see this link for additional security information.
So how did I get infected in the first place?

Please consider using Firefox
