| GOD dayam!!! i hate pop ups!!!:whip: :whip: i leave my computer on all day, and when i get home from work i have over a dozen pop up advertisements on my window!!!! how are they doing this???? for a long time i thought you only get pop ups if you click on a link or go to a specific site that has pop ups... but now, its appearing even when im not surfing the net... well, i do have cable modem and my computer is constantly running... but how the hell are they doing this??? i tried deleting my cookies and my internet content but still i get a few pop ups randomly. this is really annoying!!!! |

| Same thing happened to me with Internet Explorer so I installed Mozilla. No pop-ups now! But some sites don't work properly. :( |

| yea.. i'll give ad ware a try... i thought it might have been "gain" which is considered spy ware so i deleted the program that supported it and i still get pop ups... not as much as before but i still get a few randomly. do u personaly use ad ware? |

| yup it is really good. i had that stupid mini camera ad popping up all the time and the first time i used ad aware it was all gone. try it and see if it works. also i dont know if you have kazza on your computer but that has been known to cause a lot of pop ups as well. |

whenever i get back to my computer from maybe 5 mins, i have all these porn popups, and it annoys me.
i think its from my sister. not that she looks at porn, but i had a pw on my computer for ages, and i took it off, and ever since, theres all these porn popups. so now i have a PW again, but still popups, because i'm too lazy to fix it. |

I've been using kazza lite, and I've found out (after the fact) that there were attempts to hack into my comp through kazaa. I don't know it could have been the riaa. |

You could always download the google toolbar for internet explorer. Ever since I downloaded that, I've not had one pop-up. It's free, and works a treat!
