What is a pop-up blocker?
A pop-up blocker refers to any software or application that disables any pop-up advertisement window that you would see while using a web browser. Some may try to close all pop-up windows, some may remove all advertising and others may help you choose which pop-up windows you want to be closed with the block list feature.
