Hello, I'm a new threader and I want somebody who could help and solve my problem about those unwanted web sites, specially the adult sites that keep on popping the moment I go on line. Hope someone out there could help. :mad:

Well, i dunno how to get rid of them exactly, but you could get like a pop up ad stopper thing. Right now, i'm using this: <a href="http://www.endpopups.com" target="new">www.endpopups.com</a> It works really well. It lets a few pop ups come up, but only a few. But i dunno if this is what you're looking for.

Go to google and search for spybot and adaware. Download both and run them, they will probably find and deal with your issue.
Spybot (http://download.com.com/3120-20-0.html?qt=SPYBOT&tg=dl-2001&search=+Go%21+) and/or AdAware (http://download.com.com/3120-20-0.html?qt=adaware&tg=dl-2001&search=+Go%21+).
CWShredder (http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/cwschronicles.html) and run it (link to the download is near the bottom of the page).

also i assume you are using IE explorer, which is buggy and full of security holes. I reccomend mozilla, few bugs but still some, its open sourse, and has a built in pop up blocker that works extremely well get it here (http://www.mozilla.org/products/mozilla1.x/)

I would sugggest you download and install the google toolbar (for IE only) also. It's free and the pop-up blocker works great, not perfect but works nonetheless. If you're using Windows, you're going to have IE, and you may as well do what you can.

Go to www.webattack.com. They have a listing of all sorts of freeware including pop-up blockers. I use XMS freesurfer. I also use use Google on another machine.
