Scan & Fix 50 registry issues FREECNET Editors' review
Many ad blockers stop pop-up windows better than Ad Killer does, but this program does a good job of blanking out Flash advertisements. On first launch, the program presents all its options, including what to block and at what level. The interface offers right-click access to most settings, including the blocking levels. In our testing, Low was the only setting that let us open links to Web search strings. Most types of pop-ups will make it through unless you set the level to High, which also blocks links to Web pages. You can hold the Ctrl key to allow a window to open. Ad Killer installs in the background a file called namespace.dll, which is slightly suspicious. Worse, if you just click on the Purchase tab in its settings, the program opens a Web page with a registration form. While most users could hold out for better pop-up blocking, at least Ad Killer doesn't seem to do any harm.Publisher's Description

"A freeware? For real? - Un logiciel gratuit? Vraiment?"
Version: Ad Killer 1.2
Summary
No no and no. This is impossible website "Download.com" when i chose "FREE" and I downloaded then I found out that i had 30 days trial. So that's so ridiculous. --- Non non et non. C'est un site web insupportable « download.com » quand j'ai choisi « FREE » (gratuit) et j'ai téléchargé, ensuite je me suis informé que j'aie eu 30 jours d'essai. Alors, c'est si ridicule.

"Doesn't remove any ads, & Kills popups brainlessly."
Version: Ad Killer 1.2
Summary
First off, like everyone else has said, this is not free. This company is probably figuring they can scam people on this. You only find out it's a trial when it's installed.
The bottom line is that it kills any popup, which is fine, but every other one does it, and better. The other half, removing ads, never worked properly. The few times it did work it looked horrible; the site looked scewed, adn they have this annoying it's removed thing. But most of the time it didn't work.
I would not recommend it for ad-removing, but it's alright for blocking popups but it isn't one of the better ones (Earthlink's blocker does the same thing FREE and you can allow certain pages to show popups). -
