PreventPopUp is an integrated defense system for all Web-dependent applications against all Internet annoyances, from pop-ups, banner ads, and cookies to images, scripts, and undesired processing techniques. Unlike competitors that handle only commonly known surfing intrusions, PreventPopUp combines multiple and inclusive blocking features into one flexible control panel, in addition to a privacy-management solution for ensuring your anonymity and safety on the Web. The blocking system keeps out all undesired Web annoyances, such as pop-ups, banner ads, Flash ads, images, and scripts, in addition to a cookie-control technique that allows you to block cookies altogether. The system also works to maximize your bandwidth by blocking time-based and window-close-up event processing that occurs beyond user control. The privacy system maintains your personal information and surfing habits undisclosed to others. It also defends you against tracking attempts by shielding your operating system and browser information, and by restricting your referral information from being disclosed to Web sites. On the local level, PreventPopUp can hide your Web page titles, and it allows you to specify a title of your own for all pages. Additional features include the ability to enable the right-click context menu on Web pages that have this feature disabled, and to specify a list of restricted sites to deny access to, in addition to disabling Internet files caching.
