How can i stop those stupid pop-ups!!!?antivirus downloads



Internet Explorer 7, Firefox, and Opera have perfectly good built in pop-up blockers. They must be enabled to work. After they are enabled pop-ups should be rare.



IE7 : Tools %26gt; pop up blocker %26gt; turn on



Firefox: Tools %26gt; options %26gt; content %26gt;Check "block pop up windows



Opera: Tools %26gt; Quick Preferences %26gt; Block unwanted pop-ups



If you get more than 3 pop ups per day with the browser pop up blocker on you are infected with malware. If you follow all the following steps it should get rid of your problem and prevent future problems. All programs listed are free.
