Thanks everyone, I have Ad Aware and I do routine PC cleaning regularly, it is only recently that I have had this, so I will try the pop up blocker, I delete history, cookies and files every time I visit the net. Thats what got me baffled with all that you wouldnt think you'd have probs.

I downloaded the new MSN Toolbar which has a 'Popup Blocker' In the week since I downloaded it I've had no popups and the number blocked so far is at 30-odd. To get it just go to the MSN.co.uk homepage and follow the directions Kay

If you're online, those pop-ups are just part of life. See information on obtaining Adaware Spyware removal, which is what's causing those pop-ups on Tips Board - thread "1 Stop Routine PC Maintenance." You might also want to consider putting Spywareblaster on your computer as well.....see same thread for that, too. Judy

Is anyone else getting a lot of annoying pop ups touting sex and win-clean etc while viewing this site, or is it just me?
