Pop-ups coming in now....

[Darknyt]

I am using Zone alarm and am getting this pop-up crap that is advertising www.byebyeads.com....what kinda shakedown crap is this!?!?!?!? I gotta buy this crap in order to have it stop popping up??? Looks like its time to renew my Zonealarm subscription. I never had this mess happen when I was behind my router. Unfortunately my router isnt functioning properly....This is sick......what makes it so bad is that this is the only unwanted popup crap that keeps appears. ANyone else seen this before??

Run adaware, spybot, and get a browser like mozilla or opera.

problem solved.

Cool

Dark, if you like to stick with IE googles new toolbar has a built in popup killer also that works well. and its free

and if you're running xp (and possibly 2000) then use shoot the messenger from http://grc.com to stop windows messenger service popups ( or disable the service from right click my computer, manage) and no this is NOT msn messenger.

or go and get yourself www.avantbrowser.com

... and every one of them is IE in disguise

IMO they do ya no good as they only invite spyware with open arms just like IE
