Bayden PopupPopper

Take command of your browser... Blast unwanted popups while still allowing them from sites you trust. Banish unwanted popups forever! Unlike many other popup-removal programs, PopupPopper contains no spyware and allows you to control what gets popped and what does not. Try it and you'll never go back to an unprotected browser.

Unlike many competitive popup controllers, PopupPopper is FREEWARE and is not for sale in any form. That means we never send spam trying to get you to install it.

My favorite testimonial from a real user: A nice unbloated program, yet so enthusiastically deadly to popups.

Installation Instructions for Bayden PopupPopper

1. Download PopupPopper [English] ( 120Kb )
or Download the Beta version, which includes the image delete key, LameUI and Right-Click-Allow features.
[Other languages: Español | Francais | Italiano | Deutsch | Português | Svenska | Dutch | Danish ]

2. If you already had an older version of PopupPopper installed, remove it using the Add/Remove programs applet and reboot.
3. Run the PopupPopperSetup installer.
4. Close and restart Internet Explorer.
5. If you see any popups after that, you probably have adware on your PC. See www.bayden.com/popper/help.asp

Note: During setup, you may be prompted to download some additional files. (Why?)

Requires Internet Explorer 5.01+ and 1mb of disk space.

Feb 2 2005: Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 is now available, and includes a popup blocker and new features like tabs. Get it here: http://install7.com

Sept 1 2004: Note: Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2 includes a built-in popup controller. It can catch the sneakiest of popups, those which use ShowModelessDialog(). If you have Windows XP, we strongly recommend you visit http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com today to install the free upgrade to SP2. If you'd like, you can disable SP2's blocker and use PopupPopper, but you should still install SP2 to help secure your PC. Thanks!
