Proxomitron! I love it!

I absolutely love this program!

Features:

- Pop-up killer. But unlike some pop-up killers, it doesn't stop pop-ups after the page loads, so you can get legit pop-ups.

- Banner killer. I don't know how, but it gets rid of banners. I can't figure out how. It just does. It replaces it with a transparent image or a text link.

-Get's rid of Geocities special type of ad!

-No more scrolling status bars! Or ones that hide where you are going, either.

-Ad-frame exploder!

And much, much more. Add new ones with regular expressions. I'd suggest anyone to download it. It's so easy to install, too.

PROXOMITRON!

Proxies also slow your surfing down and take up CPU cycles...

I can do similar things with my hosts file.

If your HOSTS file is too big, it will slow your computer down also.

Everything seems fine to me and my hosts file is 17.8kb

Most of those settings can be done by just modifying your browser, why have a whole resource consuming program for it?

I'll have to download it and try it out for myself.
It sounds good.
