CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This narrowly focused toolbar handles several tasks, but it doesn't really excel at any of them. 123Stay Pop-up Blocker & History Eraser takes aim at travelers, as it provides a search box for booking hotel rooms and a link to the AmeriRes site. However, the app is cluttered with several needless icons, such as one for recommending the toolbar to a friend. To be really useful to globe-trotters, the program also should include the abilities to search for flights and rental cars. The toolbar includes a basic history cleaner, but it doesn't tell you what files it deletes or allow you to configure its settings. The pop-up blocker was strictly average, as it slows Web surfing considerably and can't cope with banners or Flash ads. In the grand scheme of things, this free toolbar is only really useful for those who stay in hotels more often than they stay at home.Publisher's description
From 123Stay.com :Kill annoying pop-ups and remove temporary Internet files and history with this toolbar for Internet Explorer. Built-in Web searching lets you highlight text, then drag and drop to the search box. Build a list of your favorite links for quick access. This is a smart tool that offers four great features for free and doesn't install spying software. It's easy to remove and never expires.

Version: 123Stay Pop-up Blocker & History Eraser 2.1.1
"BEWARE - THIS pop-up Blocker has SPYWARE IN IT!!"
Pros: This is the worst Pop-up blocker program I have ever seen because...You automatically get, as an added bonus, the Ameri-Res Toolbar! A spyware program in itself! It opens pop-up windows so fast you can't close them fast enough, and alternates between a WARNING window and a pop-up window and keeps going back and forth and back and forth. IT'S JUNK! I almost had a panic attack! PLEASE DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS. I can't believe that CNet/Download.com even rates it 3 stars!!
Cons: This PROGRAM IS HORRIBLE. Now I am not going to trust programs that the Editor rates a "3 stars" or less, ever again.

Version: 123Stay Pop-up Blocker & History Eraser 2.1.1
Summary: It's a very useful tool. It blocks popup windows, cleans temporary downloaded files and also allows me to search amerires, google, yahoo and msn. The links list is pretty handy.

Summary: I Like the idea of this toolbar. It does what it says. It has 4 great features. You do not need google or yahoo toolbar because it offers web search on Google and Yahoo too.
