Best browser to reduce pop ups?

Supposedly Netscape will block pop-up ads better than internet explorer, is anyone using Netscape? I have also found magical downloads like the google toolbar that supposedly block ads. I would rather not download something and risk a virus unless I know it works. Let me know if you have found something that works. I do not have a virus, but those ads can get out of hand and sometimes freeze the computer.

At work I have ME IE6 and at home I have XP IE7, or maybe 6, hmm.

 

I don't get popups in Firefox.

 

Its 6.

I have it on about 7 machines that use/work on.

It is great.

Nah, i think he was referring to the panicware.

It was just worded oddly.

 

hmmm, i'm actually using ie6 on my windows me computer, and the yahoo popup blocker. i think it works well, and i install it on all that i work on. i use it on my xp computers as well. i don't really like ie that much, but netscape (version 7.1) doesn't work well on alot of sites that i go to (even like bestbuy, or circuit city, etc.). and as far as the virus, i think your safe if you d/l from a legit site, etc.!! - sos

http://toolbar.yahoo.com/ <-- for ie

http://companion.mozdev.org/ <-- for netscape etc., this one i haven't tried yet though...
