Publisher's description of Pop-Up Stopper Companion

From Panicware: This privacy toolbar integrates with Internet Explorer, allowing you to automatically clean files every time you navigate to a new Web page. Find and clean tracking files such as cookies, history, and browser cache automatically as you surf. The Allow list enables you to allow pop-ups and cookies from specific, trusted Web sites. Preserve bandwidth and speed up your PC and browser by blocking pop-up windows before they load and by cleaning up files regularly. You can play one of many sounds when a pop-up window is blocked. Pop-Up Stopper Companion has an option to hide the browser toolbar, and an easy control to view it to change toolbar settings.

Editor's review of Pop-Up Stopper Companion

A browser-based pop-up blocker, Pop-Up Stopper Companion does what you need without a lot of fuss. The utility seamlessly installs where you need it--into Internet Explorer. Thus, it doesn't consume extra memory and puts all the controls close at hand. In terms of functionality, it showed good results with one caveat: It only stops pop-up browser windows, not adware-served banners or Web bugs. The interface is compact, allowing you to enable pop-ups and cookies from a particular site with just one click. Initially, the toolbar may seem cluttered, but unnecessary buttons can be removed. We were amused by the various sounds you can set to play when a pop-up is stopped. In addition to blocking, Pop-Up Stopper can protect your privacy by cleaning traces left after you surf. We recommend this light and effective utility to all active Web surfers.

  Why pay for a toolbar?

  by: Zane77 on 13-Nov-2007 07:04:48 PM

  Pros: So what if it can block pop ups and clean temporary internet files and cookies this toolbar is not worth $19.95.

  Cons: You already have a good pop up blocker installed in your web browser. You can clean your own temporary internet files, cookies and history from your own browser. Just click tools, click internet options and click delete files or delete cookies or click clear history. And if you want a toolbar that blocks pop ups get Google or Yahoo toolbar both of those are free.
