195721 2003-11-29 07:35:00 i have downloaded this google toolbar thing which is 'supposed' to block pop up ads .. i don;t see that making suck an effect although it says in the number of blocked is like 1000+. i still get annoying pop up ads . i dunno whether it reduces but i;m not satisfied with that thing ....


i have this other problem even if there is no browser on and i'm playing a game . i leave kazaa lite on for download and a play a game ...after a few minutes my game minimizes and goes to a pop up ad

i dunon about ya'll but that irritates me to the core ..

its would be appriceated if some one could help on this matter

195722 2003-11-29 08:11:00 The popup ads could be Messenger popups. Have a look at this page (www.nbc4.com) for information on how to prevent them. tommy (2826)
195723 2003-11-29 13:22:00 The googlebar only stops pop-ups delivered to you from sites you are visiting.And in that regard works very well.

In your case you have software installed on your computer that does nothing but serve up adds.This *&^%(* software either comes bundled with other software and installs without asking or just installs itself while surfing.

Run spybot and you shall see what i mean.

If it proves a liitle more diificult that hijackthis and/or cwshredder maybe be needed....But run spybot first.
