SuperSteve Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 I need a new pop-up blocker. My old one's trial period ran out, now I keep getting a bunch of pop-ups all the time. You guys had a bunch awhile ago, just wondering if anyone can fill me in on them. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DonkeyKongerko Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 Google's works pretty well for me. If you get alot of popups with the blocker turned on it could be some spyware. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have that Spy Bot thingy, and I'll run it later. I am not exactly sure how to use it. My Google taskbar gets alot of pop-ups (6774 total in few months+), but I still get a bit.

You guys had a bunch awhile ago, just wondering if anyone can fill me in on them. Thanks. A combination of Spybot Search and Destroy and Ad-Aware 6 works very well. It may not stop all pop-ups, but they will basically delete all software downloaded onto your computer that creates these pop-ups. Both programs are available via download.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
