 Best pop-up blocker?

ive had a look on download.com and the pop-up blockers there do seem to have had good ratings, not the free ones anyway.

can people advise on a very good free one? thanks

there are still a few websites that firefox wont display, some of m-softs usually and the lotto website is another. i think there is a IE emulator extension which will allow these to work. otherwise you will have to use IE for the 1% that wont display.
