Need something to brighten up your Monday? Get your mind off of work? Rather than actually surfing the internet, try the Realistic Internet Simulator!

I killed 40 popups. Yay!

Aw, man, that is rich. I didn't get that it was a game for a little while. When I finally got it, it made my day. Thanks for the link!

More fun than real pop-ups, for sure!

(so the over-all rating would be: "better than absolutely horrible")

sounds like they're singing "Kill the Mall Cops! Kill the Mall Cops!"...

The game should have an option to install Mozilla and set it to not allow unrequested pop-up windows -- you then automatically win!

Wow, I got 81 before someone distracted me and I clicked in the wrong place. They start to come really really fast after a while.

Not quite a realistic simulator though - not enough of the ads were for porn sites.

Not quite realistic - when you close one window, it should spawn a few more as it dies.
