I can't be the only one on this list who hates/resents being assaulted by
those awful pop-up ads...  Spotted this on ZDNet today and just downloaded
it.  Has anyone else used it...or something similar?

OnTrack! (Win 95/98)  07-29-98

InterCan Tech
OnTrack! is an innocuous little program that adds true joy to your Internet
browsing experience. It accomplishes this by preventing the annoying and
obtrusive pop-up windows that are proliferating on the Web from gracing your
desktop. It runs as a plug-in for Internet Explorer and Netscape, so you
don't even need to load the program. It loads automatically and invisibly
when you start your browser, filtering out commands that open windows
without user interaction. All other Web page functionality remains intact
while you browse. If you want to load pop-up windows from a particular site,
OnTrack! lets you easily disable its functionality, and later restore it
just as easily. It couldn't be easier to use -- and better yet, it's free. A
separate version is available for Windows NT 4.0. Reviewed on Jul 29 1998.

System Requirements
IE and/or Netscape 3.0+ and Windows 95 or Windows 98

Purchase Information
