That's a good opinion.
It would have to be a user level thing, I would think.

Hmm...personally I think this is too iron-clad of an approach. For
example, surf to MSNBC, CNN, Buy.com, or Amazon and friendly pop-ups
appear. Make a transaction on any of these sites and pop-ups appear to
verify credit card validation codes, shipping info, etc. Making a
purchase at Dell.com would be impossible if pop-ups were blocked. Does
this mean that you want to institute a policy that your users cannot
make any online purchases while at the workplace?

Obviously, something that supports rule-based management would be
optimal, but from experience I can tell you that sifting through 10,000+
spam messages per week to confirm that my GFI MailEssentials rules are
working is time consuming enough - I wouldn't want to add another level
of checking popup rulesets with a theoretical popup server-side product.

Course, that is my take on this. I am interested to see what others
think on this issue...

I share the same feeling and if a server side app exist for this
purpose, there should be a means to only apply it to certain users or
through group policies.

My feelings that blocking ads needs to be centrally controlled

There are plenty of free client-side options, Proxomitron, Privacy
Defender 7.0...however from my experience blocking pop-ups is bad news.
One VP here was very angry when an online order was screwed up due to
pop-up blocking software blocking the final transaction process.

Is blocking pop-ups best done at the client level (where the user has
control) or server-side? Anyone else have any feedback on this?

Recommendations software to stop these at the ISA Server?
Are there any?

Any help would be great.
