What is a pop-up blocker that will work with iRider?
I would like to know the name of a pop-up blocker that will prevent
pop-ups in the iRider internet browser (www.irider.com). iRider uses a
"multiple or tabbed" interface for browsing webpages, with new
webpages appearing as new thumbnails images in an area to the left.
Pop-ups also appear as new thumbnail images. iRider sits on top of
Microsoft Internet Explorer, so normal pop-up blocking programs, as
well as toolbars and other IE enhancements, do not work.
A couple of notes:
-I don't expect 100% perfect pop-up blocking, but obvious pop-ups
should be blocked. I recommend trying to block pop-ups at sites like
www.weather and http://www.foxnews.com. Passing the simple tests at
http://www.popuptest.com/ is also important.
-I know internet browsers such as Firefox already have pop-up
blocking, tabbed interfaces, and are free. I agree that Firefox is
superior to iRider in every way. However, I am still interested in
having this question concerning pop-ups in iRider answered.
-I am already using a host file that routes ad sites to localhost.
This prevents almost all pop-up windows from having any content, but
does not prevent the actual pop-up window from appearing.
If I've missed any details you may need to help me solve this problem,
please ask. I look forward to a solution.
Thank you. |
