 AnalogX POW! Application

AnalogX POW!

 
Description: Downloadable from their site. A piece of software that gets rid of the pop-up adverts on site, before you even see them.

 ... that problem. Another good thing is that you can edit the URLs of the things you want the program to shoot down. For instance, say you see you've added a bunch of URLs to POW that all start with the string "http://ads". If you go into the add/delete menu of this program, you can edit one of those URLs and add the wildcard symbol "*" after that string so that anytime any pop-up appears that has that string of characters, the program will trounce it. Minuses: each and every pop-up on the net will ap...more

Anyone else getting a little harassed with the pop-up windows that appear whenever you rate an opinion? Well, I am, so I've been scouring the dooyoo internet section to try and find a way to get rid of these horrible boxes that are driving me demented! And the best application seems to be POW. This is a program you can download onto your machine, and when you have it running, it recognizes all the popups and displays them in a list. You can doubleclick on any of them and it will then automatically recognize them and stop them in their tracks in future! Hurrah! Just in case you are in any doubt, let me reassure you right now. 1)It takes ...  Read the complete review

The internet is good isn't it? Yeah, I think so too. Despite it's brilliance, our old friend Mr WWW has a lot of bad habits. Including, filling your hard-drive with websites you've been to, storing lots of cookies for fun, allowing disturbing people to hack into your PC, and filling your screen with lots and lots of pop-ups that you really don't like. Whenever I want to *fix* one of Mr WWW's bad habits, I don't want to have to change lots of settings, or edit the registry, or even search for hours, I just want something else to do it for me. Actually, whenever I need a program that is very simple, very effective, and very useful, I always ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review AnalogX POW!: Free and clever - and there's no catch (638 words)

Remember the annoying Nokia popups which sprouted on Dooyoo the other week? This is a clever, free utility which gets rid of things like that. POW! is an amazing little program – and little it is, it only takes a few minutes to download. I don’t usually trust free programs like this, I always think they must be gathering all sorts of information from my system while they work. This one seems to be OK though. It is a simple utility which is free to download from Analogx.com (http://www.analogx.com/contents/download/network/pow.htm). As soon as a popup you don’t want opens, POW! closes it for you. It keeps a record of how many it has ...  Read the complete review

I'm sure I'm not the only person becoming just a little irritated at the number of pop-up windows one has to endure to browse the internet. It is a rare occasion when you find a site free of advertising, and ever rare that it has good content. For a long time I have wondered whether or not it was possible to rid yourself of pop-ups, and it seemed the only way to go about this was to simply turn off javascript in your internet options. Of course, this meant that the sites you wanted to look at invariably did not work properly. Fortunately, there is now another option. The wonderful site, AnalogX (www.analogx.com, they have loads of free ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review AnalogX POW!: Obliterate, Raze, and Demolish Popups (1612 words)

Pop-ups. We all hate them, don't we? But how to get rid of them. There are several ways, and one is by using a pop-up blocking program. The one I'm using today is called POW by AnalogX! I first discovered this program when my PopKi program started crashing my computer and I needed a program to get rid of those nasty pop-ups. After having read several opinions of different pop-up assassins, I decided to try "POW!" Why POW? Well, first of all, from what I'd heard, it was a small program and an easy download. I went to the site (see below), clicked the spot, downloaded the installation program, ran that and voila! It was all on my computer, and ...  Read the complete review
