Editorial Review of Ad Annihilator

Ad Annihilator is good -- very good, in fact -- at blocking pop-up ads, banner ads, Flash ads, and other distractions, including cookies. Once you've started blocking ads, the program's "suppression mechanism" (which sounds like an antibiotic) recognizes and kills similar banners and pop-up windows. If you identify a keyword or character string that often appears in ads, you can add it to the program's Web content filtering and blocking feature.

There are also options to block specific ads and pop-ups from the right-click menu in Internet Explorer.

But you need a warning: Unlike other set-and-forget ad blockers, Ad Annihilator is a geeky tool and you'll need some spare time to configure it perfectly. Ad Annihilator works with any version of Windows, but only with Internet Explorer (5.0 and newer). After the 15-day trial, you're going to have to pony up $30 to keep using Ad Annihilator.

    IE AdBlock is small and unobtrusive, and does a decent job removing many, but not all pop-ups, banner ads, and other annoyances; unfortunately, it doesn't know how to handle Flash ads.
