It comes with a built-in database that can be updated online. You can also add additional web sites, in case you run into one that is not blocked automatically or that you would like to add to the blocking rules (regardless of content type). The program offers two modes, one that allows access to all web sites, except pornography, and a restricted mode that blocks all web browsing, except for the sites that you specifically allow. The blocking level and tolerance can be customized and the program also keeps track of the web sites that were visited. Additional options include blocking access to selected folders, restricting program access, locking the IE home page, custom warning messages, network synch and more. The program is very easy to install and properly blocked offensive content during our tests. It only works with Internet Explorer though, if any other browsers are used, the content is not filtered.

ZeroAds enables you to block Internet ads, adware ads, pop-ups, and bad cookies from reaching your computer. The program runs as a dashboard along the top of your screen (can be minimized to the tray) that displays statistics on blocked items and provides access to configuration options. It also displays activity and connection statistics for your Internet connection. The ad blocking worked well during our review, but popup blocking performed extremely poor when we tested it at popuptest.com. The cookie blocking feature blocked some cookies, but not all and cannot be customized. Overall, a very slick interface with good ad blocking features, but it performed well below expectations in most other aspects. ZeroAds supports Netscape, IE and Opera browsers.
