Philadelphia, PA, USA -- 1 April 2004 -- k.soft announces the release of version 3.0 of PopupDummy!, its popular pop-up, adware, and spyware blocking solution for Windows 95/98/NT/ME/2000/XP.

PopupDummy! is a system utility to block pop-ups, adware, spyware, hijackers, and harmful “drive-by” downloads from your web browser and desktop applications automatically.

With the proliferation of pop-up advertisements and spyware pests roaming the Internet, you may find little control against the accidental download of spyware or other harmful web browser plug-ins. PopupDummy! solves this problem by providing real-time protection against pop-up advertisements, adware/spyware installers, hijackers, and “drive-by” downloads before they even have a chance to install on your PC.

PopupDummy! uses multiple techniques to protect your PC from pop-up and spyware pests. Unwanted pop-up advertisements are blocked before you even see them. Additional pop-ups may be added to a “block list” by their window title, giving you the power to block any intrusive window.

PopupDummy! monitors your PC to protect you from dangerous spyware programs and disables any harmful web browser plug-ins which may have installed on your PC. While “drive-by” downloads are the leading cause of pop-up spawning pests installed on a PC, PopupDummy! protects you from these harmful downloads by blocking the installers at their source, before they even display.

PopupDummy! allows you to disable web browser plug-ins already installed on your PC and corrects hijackings, giving you full control over any customization of your web browser. PopupDummy! also allows you to set specific web addresses as safe and can be temporarily turned off by holding down the control key while clicking a link.

Registered users of PopupDummy! receive upgrades to the latest version at no charge by visiting the company's web site to download and install the new version.

A fully functional demo is available to the public at http://www.popupdummy.com. Program registration is a one-time payment of US$29.95, and may be completed from the company's web site.
