Enjoy an Internet experience free of troublesome pop-up ads. Internet Explorer comes with a powerful anti-pop-up program attached to it. Since it is already activated when you get Internet Explorer, you don't have to do anything. Just sit back and enjoy your pop-up-free Internet session.
Make sure your computer has what it needs to run Internet Explorer. You must have at least 64 MB of RAM. A Pentium processor will help Internet Explorer run at its best, but is not required.
These steps are designed to be used with Internet Explorer 7.0. Other versions of Internet Explorer may have different steps for making the program translate into other languages.
