How does the Popup Blocker work?
Websites often use Javascripts to load advertisements while you are browsing a page. When loaded, these scripts open popups, mostly while you are browsing or when you leave the page. The Popup Blocker disables most of these scripts preventing the actual popup from appearing. When blocking a popup the Toolbar plays a windows system sound and adds one to the counter. After counting to 999 it resets again to 0. The Popup Blocker is enabled by default, you can change these settings on the Toolbar Settings Page.
