popSmarts Popup Killer trial version
return to top
 

The trial version of popSmarts is not limited by time, but will expire after 120 uses (each blocked popup counts as one use).
After the trial uses run out, popSmarts will partially disable itself. Approximately 1/3 of attempted popups will be blocked, and approximately 1/3 will open normally. The remaining third will be blocked with a nagware notice reminding you to register your copy of popSmarts.

NEW VERSION 1.01 !
The new version of popSmarts includes several improvements in the support area, making our support staff even easier to get ahold of. It is also even easier than before to enter in your registration code after purchase! The biggest improvement is the addition of a complete, offline help file! popSmarts has never been easier to use!

Ad-Aware
Birnam Labs highly recommends downloading this software. Ad-Aware, by LavaSoft (see link below), is designed to detect and remove all Adware and Spyware from your computer. These applications get installed without your knowledge or consent by 'piggy-backing' on other installations. They can create popups and spy on your browsing behavior.

Ad-Aware is 100% free! Or you can support LavaSoft and purchase their Ad-Aware Pro version for $15.

ZoneAlarm
One of the best personal firewall products out there! Use this to keep hackers out of your system.

ZoneAlarm (the basic version) is free for personal and non-profit use!

BHODemon

Note: Birnam Labs no longer links to BHOCop because it now requires a paid subscription to PCMagazine. Instead we now recommend BHODemon, which is still free to use!
Other popup killers use a technology known as BHO to integrate with Internet Explorer. BHOs, or Browser Helper Objects, will automatically launch themselves whenever a window of Internet Explorer opens. Windows doesn't tell you if you have any BHOs installed, and they can run completely invisibly without a user interface! This makes BHOs a very popular tool for adware creators, and can even be a way to run a virus on your computer! BHOs can be turned off with the Internet Explorer security option to disable all 3rd-party software. Birnam Labs recommends disabling BHOs!

If you don't want to turn off all BHOs (some of them can actually be useful), please download and run BHODemon. BHODemon will show you what BHOs you have and gives you the option to disable them or to remove them from your system.

BHODemon is a free download.
