I use Omniweb and have been very pleased with how well it eliminates pop ups and pop unders. It also allows disabling animations. Really helpful for faster browsing on some pages. Most of the browsers; Mozilla, Omni, etc. are freeware or have a trial period, where you can try them out. The only time I use I.E. is for on line banking, as my bank only supports Netscape and I.E. Experiment with a different browser. I think you'll find one that you'll like. Jack Russell -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
