Apples Safari browser offers an integrated pop-up blocker on the Windows and Mac platforms, as well as on iOS devices like the iPad and iPhone.

Alternatively, install plug-ins that suppress tracking and pop-ups for individual sites and browsing sessions.

The pop-up blocker for Mac computers is accessible through the Web content section of Safaris settings.

From the menu along the top of the Safari window, choose Safari Preferences.

Block and Notify blocks pop-ups on the site and notifies you when it happens.

To do the same when visiting other websites, select When visiting other websites in the lower-right corner of the window.
