Publisher's Description
From Vvisoft:
MagicJack is a inexpensive VOIP phone service - but its user interface gets annoying. I made this program to block (keep minimized) the magicJack popup window and regain control of my Desktop. magicBlock doesn't interfere with the usage of magicJack - it just stops the popup window from disrupting whatever the phone is activated. When magicBlock is enabled, the sparse functions offered by the magicJack window are still available by right-clicking over it's tray icon (the little icon by the clock). The installation program will add this program to your Startup folder so it automatically runs when you start your computer.
Version 1.2 include ability to retain focus on current window after MagicJack popup occurs.
What's new in this version: Version 1.2 include ability to retain focus on current window after MagicJack popup occurs.

"w/WinXP Home -Its like a bad joke. Now need MB blocker."
Version: MagicBlock 1.2
Pros
Windows XP
Yes, it keeps the main pop up window from popping up.Cons
A dialogue still appears to answer or not. Now Magic Block itself pulls you out of full screen mode to tell you the MagicJack popup was blocked. What s the point of that? Now I need a Magic Block block. It's like a bad joke.
Summary
Useless.

"Substitutes one popup for another."
Version: MagicBlock 1.2
Pros
It does block the MagicJack popup.
Cons
A donation popup comes on when opening an internet browser. The donation continues to popup even after a donation is made.
Summary
This MagicJack popup blocker is annoying and not worth installing.

"Did the job."
Version: MagicBlock 1.2
Pros
Got rid of the pop up.
Cons
Found none.

"It was okay"
Version: MagicBlock 1.2
Pros
It did what it said it would do. It blocked MagicJack from popping up. It's free.
Cons
In Win 7 if I'm in one app and then click on another one in the task bar, the icon of the one I was just in blinks. Annoying. Also, if I want to access the MagicJack control and therefore try to exit MagicBlock, MagicBlock hangs.
Summary
It works okay, but does annoying things. I've had better luck with MagicSilence, which is a paid program, but inexpensive.

"Works great... even on Windows 7"
Version: MagicBlock 1.2
Pros
This program keeps the annoying MJ window from appearing every time I get a call and this program is FREE.
Cons
None so far.
Summary
I would recommend this to anyone that wants to keep the annoying MJ window from popping up when a call comes in. After installing MagicBlock, I had to restart the MJ program. After that the popup was stopped.

"Great product, but unstable on Windows 7."
Version: MagicBlock 1.2
Pros
Works just like the programmer said it would!
Cons
Unstable when attempting to unblock MagicJack popup window. Freezes and I have to restart both magicBlock and magicJack.
Summary
I ended up uninstalling it in the end and using magicSilence, available on CNET for free.

"Worked great when I had vista and XP. Not on Win 7"
Version: MagicBlock 1.2
Pros
Honestly it worked better than I expected, but upon upgrading to windows 7 64 bit alas I am plagued with Magic Jacks annoying in your face pop up screen.
Cons
No Win 7 support, Please make an update bud! And really, come on MJ, I got a 6 year membership, do you really gotta put an ad in my face every time I get or make a Call? Some of us have what's called a Media server, not a MJ Ad server.... Sheesh!
Summary
I love the product, I beg the author to please release an updated version, MJ is trying to drive me insane! I loved watching video's on Hulu, Netflix, Etc back when Magic block worked on my system but now with MJ feeling the need to minimize whatever I am watching to thrust their annoying window in my face.
