Hey Guys,
     Want a combination of speed and getting rid of
those popups, try opera i find it extremly fast and
there is provision in it to block popups but as it is
said every coin has 2 sides there are issues in opera
like it does not support some activex bcoz of which i
am not able to view pages of some webpages. Anyways 
just give a try!!!
Regards
Santosh
