I've discovered the new Google search tool bar works great for this. Its 
fee and since I started using it I haven't seen a single pop up. It keeps 
track of them though and so far Ive had 219 blocked over a 3 week period.

I do ALOT of Google searches and having the Google search field right there 
in my tool bar is really handy. This little utility is available on 
google.com and I must admit I'm impressed with it.
