I never get any, but I think if u come here and don't have cookies enabled u may get them.

manny... that sounds like malware. ta has never had popups.

use this to clean your computer up... works like a charm:

My computer gets scanned daily. Malwarebytes as well as others... Its jst very weird.

still sounds like somethings off. try a different browser and see if you get the same result.

check your profile sections.

I also think it is the cookies factor.. or you aren't signed in??

You only get ads when ur not signed in - not sure about pop ups

I have that program & no dice. It seems to be a browser hijacker. Pissing me off.

try googling the websites it takes you to. those websites should be unique to this hijack or how else would they make their money. from there maybe you can find some other people who have had the same problem and possibly a solution.

good luck. i know how much it blows.

Thats what i get for clicking on the midget nica porn link u sent me. LOL!

I fixed the problem. It was a browser hijcaker like i figured. It was a win2.Alureon.h infection.

Believe it or not the microsoft security essentials program removed it. All is well now..

from what I've been hearing, the microsoft security essentials is actually a very good free virus scanner; better than most free ones
