I run adaware on my terminal servers every couple of weeks and I found a =
program called Free Surfer that does an incredible job at blocking =
popups (www.free.surfer.tc). Haven't tried it on a TS yet but it works =
great on 2k and XP.

I am extending my skills by getting a programming degree and have to =
take an intro class in operating systems (long story).  I am assembling =
some links for my lab partner who is a total newbie to computers. I =
forgot to add Adaware though.  Everybody should have that.

We also use freeware called adaware, which seems to work pretty =
well......
it runs on your taskbar, has a pretty current list, and if an ad does =
pop
up...u can click on the taskbar and add that one to the list of popups =
to
block....seems to work pretty well...have 2 pc's right next to each =
other
one running adaware and has the list that Jim sent out, the other with
nothing.....obviously inundated with popups. I put the link to =
dowload.com
site below. HTH

Jim posted a site a few weeks ago (maybe longer) that had a hosts file =
=3D
that set ad sites to local host.

Does anyone have that link still?

I tried the archives but came up empty.

Thanks!
