Temporary

that. Simply click the set
bookmark button when you are at a web

Finding
your last downloaded file
When you download a file in
Internet Explorer, you are prompted
where you would like the file to be
saved, and the file will be stored in
that location when the download is
complete. Many times,
users will click the Save button, and
then later realize there they have
lost track of the downloaded
file. With Pop-Up Stopper Companion, you
simply click the folder icon on the
toolbar, and the location the last
downloaded file was stored will be
opened as a folder for easy retrieval
and access! |

Pop-Up
window control
Pop-Up Stopper Companion provides a highly
effective method for controlling
pop-up windows that often intrude on
your surfing experience.
The pop-up control allows you to surf
normally, clicking on links, opening
new windows, but simply blocks the
windows launched by web pages you
visit. If pop-up windows
still sneak through in our
"Standard" mode of
operation, you may elect to use
"Aggressive Mode" which uses
an even more strict method of
controlling the pop-up
windows. This mode may be
activated or deactivated at anytime
from the Preferences. You
may hold down the CTRL (Control) key
when clicking on a link to allow a new
window if desired.
You may also elect to play a sound
when a windows is prevented as
notification that a window was
blocked. You may select
one of several default sounds, or
select your own sound in the
Preferences menu. |
