Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This fine pop-up blocker won us over with its effective performance and unexpected extra features. Since Super Ad Blocker sits in your system tray and can be added to your Internet Explorer toolbar, it's convenient to access no matter what you're doing. The application's logically organized main window is split into tabs for ad blocking, history cleaning, cookies, statistics, notification, and options. In our tests, the program did an excellent job of quashing all types of pop-ups, banner ads, and Flash ads when using both Internet Explorer and Firefox. You can add allowed sites to a whitelist. This program's antispyware tool performed quite well, stopping the vast majority of adware that tried to run on our system. The malware scanner also did a decent job. Beyond its prowess with pop-ups, Super Ad Blocker also lets you clear your Web-surfing and Windows histories. You also can have the program play one of several sounds when an ad is eliminated, and you can view statistics on blocked-ad types and frequencies. Users who need a high-performance pop-up blocker, spyware protection, a history cleaner, or all three certainly will benefit from this program.Publisher's description
From SuperAdBlocker :Super Ad Blocker blocks all forms of advertising, including Flash ads, rich media, fly-ins, slide-ins, pop-ups, pop-unders, spyware and adware ads, and messenger ads. The program blocks major spyware applications, sponsored search-engine ads, and Gmail-sponsored links, and it includes advanced privacy cleaning and automatic updates, so the product is never outdated. Super Ad Blocker provides detailed statistics for the number and type of ads blocked. The application plays a fun sound when an ad is blocked to celebrate your victory. The scanner features a kernel level driver designed to help detect and remove 'rootkit' style infections. The ad-blocking now blocks IntelliText ads that appear on web pages as double underlined words that show a window when hovered over.
Version 4.1.1004 provides updated ad-blocking and spyware defintions to detect and remove over 100,000 pests.

Version: Super Ad Blocker 4.1.1004
Pros: Works beutifully on Win XP and I changed to this from Ad Annihilator as they do NOT support IE7! Not very proactive to not have their issue fixed by the time IE7 RC1 came out. Super Ad Block Blocks any kind of banner add and pop up, checks for spyware, clears internet history and files and much much more! They make the banners disappear completely so you do not see anything on the web page at all. Highly recommended!
Cons: None that I can think of.
