I got Adblock Plus to deal with insidious ads, most of all Mackkeeper, that pop up now almost every time I click on a link. It hasn't seemed to help. I'm new to this. Is there any way to block a page a specific ad when it pops up?
Thanks, Tom in Texas

DO NOT download the safemac/admedic suggested above! I did and now I have 5 times for pop up ads than i did before, additional sites popping up that i had not seen before! Plus... it forces you to pay at least $1 through paypal even though it claims to be free! Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get rid of all this adware????? Please help!!!!
