How to get rid of adverts on IE7?

Does anybody have any suggestions on some free advert blocking software on IE7? I've got pop-up blocker running but I just can't seem to stop those annoying flipping adverts for banks/loans/tv channels etc etc from coming onto the screen :@

Re: Loss of instrument panels

tried the w key. I'll have to actually see the PC to see just what I can do, it's not easy having to explain over the phone.

Loss of instrument panels

Parents parents parents! I don't know, my dad rang me the other day and it would appear that he's lost the instrument panels in fs9 when he's on full screen, although they return when he uses alt+enter, but as soon as he returns to full they've gone. I'm guessing he's clicked on something and can't ...

Re: Problems with Adobe reader

Just wish I could uninstall Adobe, when I try I get an error message pop up saying that a patch file cannot be located. Oh well I'll just leave it, at least I've got a reader that works now. ;-)

Re: Problems with Adobe reader

Hi Gary, Ben. I have tried a restore but I can't restore to any of the dates in Feburary for some reason. I think my PC's having a moment.
But I will try Ben's suggestion and try foxit.

Excellent, foxit works a treat, thanks Ben :welldone:

Re: Burning videos onto DVD's

Dave, the format is wmv, I'm starting to think that a plug in or something might be missing from Nero as my dad said that a message popped up when he was using it saying that a plug in has expired and requires visiting nero's web site to download something for £50? :@

Re: Zurich FSX+FS9

Got it running on my PC, have to admit it has to be good for me to pay for decent scenery but this one is well worth it. All I need is to be able to fly over my cousins house and I'll be happy :flying:
