what about improved popup blocking. i still get sites that have popups even if i turn off popups and use an external blocker. IE6, 7 and 8 allow NO popups when set to high with no addon.

Maybe you have an adware software installed on your system. I suggest you scan it, I have MVPS Host file with Adblock Plus and the latest updates of it and I never have a single popup appear. I suggest a system scan.

That is definitely not normal behavior.

It is. There are still ways to get around the popup blocker. Ever visit weather.com? Go there type in a zip and a popup comes up.

Seems just a bit faster since the update as well. Has anyone else noticed this, or is it just me?
