I'm sure many would be interested in knowing if anyone's popup blocker software can pass all of these tests on this page. http://popuptest.com
My results are below. This is with the XP SP2 Native PopUp blocker on one computer, and PopUp Stopper Pro on my SP1 computer. The SP2 blocker was set to "Low--allow popups from secure sites" and PU Stopper Pro was set to "Enable aggressive popup control". Both PC's have their IE security settings set to as high as they can go, while still enabling file downloads and minimal ActiveX. (I set both to "High", then customized it to allow for these).
Test # (Counting from top to bottom):
1. SP2 PU blocker: PASSED first phase, but FAILED when clicking the "Back" button. PU Stopper Pro: PASSED
2. SP2 PU blocker: PASSED 1st phase but FAILED when clicking "Back"--got 1 PU when clicking "Back". PU Stopper Pro: PASSED 1st phase but FAILED when clicking "Back"--got 1 PU when clicking "Back".
3. SP2 PU blocker: PASSED & FAILED (showed NO PU initially but ONE when clicking "Back"). PU Stopper Pro: FAILED & FAILED (showed ONE PU initially and ONE when clicking "Back").
4. SP2 PU blocker: PASSED PU Stopper Pro: FAILED (PU's came up every 5 seconds).
5. SP2 PU blocker: PASSED PU Stopper Pro: PASSED
6. SP2 PU blocker: FAILED PU Stopper Pro: FAILED
7. SP2 PU blocker: PASSED PU Stopper Pro: PASSED
8. SP2 PU blocker: PASSED PU Stopper Pro: FAILED
9. SP2 PU blocker: PASSED PU Stopper Pro: PASSED
10. SP2 PU blocker: FAILED PU Stopper Pro: FAILED
11. SP2 PU blocker: FAILED PU Stopper Pro: FAILED
12. SP2 PU blocker: PASSED PU Stopper Pro: PASSED
13. SP2 PU blocker: FAILED PU Stopper Pro: FAILED
14. SP2 PU blocker: PASSED PU Stopper Pro: FAILED
15. SP2 PU blocker: PASSED PU Stopper Pro: PASSED (But I noticed that page was in my "Restricted sites" so that may be why it passed that test. It was probably added to "Restricted sites" by SpyBot or SpywareBlaster).*
16. SP2 PU blocker: PASSED PU Stopper Pro: PASSED
*I noticed on the SP2 computer that that site was NOT in the "Restricted sites" on it, and it has SpyBot and SpywareBlaster installed. So, evidently that site was something I added myself to the Restricted Sites area and PU Stopper Pro passed it.
Ok, so awarding 1 pt. for a full pass and .5 for partial pass, that gives the SP2 PU blocker 10.5 and PU Stopper Pro 7.5. Pretty good I must say for the SP2 blocker, especially since it was set to LOW and PU Stopper Pro was set to "aggressive"! I'm impressed. :-) -Clint
