Popupstopper free edition is not too bad. www.panicware.com

Hands down... best one evAr is Popup Block 1.65 www.popupblock.net It's winning awards and is one of the only ones that can stop a website from knowing your using a popup blocker. It's like $15 on their site... but it can be... uhh... free.

Heres a site that actually reviews popup stopper programs: http://www.popup-killer-review.com/

Popup Block is pretty much covering everything on the list of what they want to stop... cept for one type of popup.. the kind that don't actually come from the internet.
