Except for TA, I usually browse using AvantBrowser

Remember, the pop-ups here pay the bill

Go to www.download.com and download the freeware called "Adaware" by Lavasoft.

It removes adware that pops up, because of something on your computer's hard drive (even if you are not surfing the web)

The worst is the pop up ads that advertise pop up ad stoppers. I just wanna kick whoever made those right in the head.

pop-ups???

sounds like too much porno for you my friend...

who doesnt hate em or find em annoying.
you cant help it, and the anti-popads programs are never 100% effective imho. so just keep on clicking the x and close the windows.
the only ones that annoy me are the interactive ones that you cant close until it finished playing.

meh... I haven't had to look at a pop up in over a year...

yay Mozilla.

pop ups wouldn't be a problem if all you wankers didn't use MSIE.

get norton internet security .. i havent seen a pop up in months and i use IE6

Check out 'Free Surfer' if you want a pop-up killer that's free, simple and Very easy to use.

If that doesn't solve your problem, you are well advised, as someone already pointed out, to get Lavasoft Ad-Aware. This scans your computer for spyware and related rubbish then lets you remove it all.

This wanker's MSIE must be defective then because I don't get any popups.

Pop-ups = SUCK

Posted by U121 on Feb-05-2003 16:52:

what popups? =P

actually i use Nortons anti ad function which removes about 90% of all those litle buggers =D

Just remember that this site (and many others) couldn't stay up if it weren't for the revenue from popups to pay server fees.

And since popups pay for all my websites and hosting fees, I have nothing against them...

Posted by tranceaddict991 on Feb-06-2003 01:33:

porn pop ups are the worst, expecially when gay ones start to pop up

Posted by Ultraphu on Feb-06-2003 06:19:

I can handle the pop-ups on this site, but that's it!! Oh, and Djmixes2k..

Posted by Joca on Feb-06-2003 07:00:

I use Opera web browser and it has an option where you can refuse pop ups. It's great for surfing porn sites
