Damn Pop-ups

I'll second Martin's suggestion - AdAware. "Your village called -
They're missing their idiot."

Try Spybot - Search & Destroy security.kolla.de[^] It's faster, also free. Igor.

In addition to running AdAware[^], get the latest IE patches to close up security holes, and read the EULAs on everything you install to see if the apps come with spyware/adware. --Mike-- Ericahist | CP SearchBar v2.0.2 | Homepage | RightClick-Encrypt | 1ClickPicGrabber There is a saying in statistics that a million monkeys pounding on typewriters would eventually create a work of Shakespeare. Thanks to the Internet, we now know that this is not true.

Stop using IE, try Opera www.opera.com [^]or Mozilla Firebird http://www.mozilla.org/projects/firebird/release-notes.html#install[^]

I've given up on Opera, its just so sloowww. Don't know what they were thinking with version 7.

Something thats not slow: http://404Browser.com[^]. As far as the popups I suspect that its ad ware unless you had multiple windows open (cp doesn't have popup ads). -Steven Hicks

Try Netscape 7.1 its free and has a built in popup blocker. I haven't seen a popup in months. BTW the default setting for Netscape is to allow 5 or 6 companies to pop-you-up. I disabled this before I used it. Jeff Patterson Programmers speak in Code. http://www.anti-dmca.org[^]

And don't forget to turn off the Messenger service. ;P If your nose runs and your feet smell, then you're built upside down.

Pop-ups? what are pop-ups? I have never seen one recently.. Oh, probably it's because of I am using Mozilla Browser! :-)
