Good Morning, There is an internet filtering program, from Siemans, called WebWasher which can eliminate most banner ads and JavaScript pop-up windows from your web-searches and emails. There are versions for the PC and Mac versions of IE and Netscape. I've tried it, and it works great, but I haven't tried it with some of the more sophisticated adaptive equipment. The German company, Siemans, has made the program free for non-commercial use! WebWasher is less than 1 Mb, so it downloads quickly. There are a few steps to the installation, but they're explained quite well, in Deutsche and English, on the web-site. WebWasher is explained, MUCH better, and can be downloaded from the Siemans page at this link: http://www.webwasher.de/en/software/wwash/download.htm Once you download WebWasher to your hard drive, double-click on the installation file to install the program, and then follow the on- screen instructions to configure WebWasher and your browser. They have a sample page to test it when you're through. The banner ads and pop-ups are not even downloaded, which speeds up surfing time and eliminates many "cookies" that are sent VIA these ads.
