How do you stop the pop-up windows that show up out of no where on your
computer? I don't mean the ones that pop-up while you're surfing. I'm
talking about the ones that just pop-up out of no where that are beige in
color and try to advertise products or services. I can close up all my
browsers and go to bed and in the morning here is this ad sitting on my desk
top. Of course I have a broadband connection so I'm always connected to the
Internet as long as my computer is on. But it's real annoying. I even get
the pop-ups now that advertise how to get rid of the pop-ups "forever" for a
fee. Go figure.
