How to get rid of Pop ups...

Alt-F4

Check your Add/Remove programs and get rid of all those stinking SpyWare gadgets you have installed... (just a guess)

check out a program called "ad-aware" you can get it off of download.com

It should remove the spyware causing the popup... it did for me.

I d/l Ad Aware, how do I know which one is causing the pop up?

Look in your programs for shit you didn't install, sounds like gator or something similar.

I got rid of Gator, although that's not what's causing the pop up. There's also something called "brilliant digital" in my registry..is that the one?

**B40** · 06-28-2002, 12:48 PM

Ya I got Kazaa...is that where I got it from?

**InsaneMidget** · 06-28-2002, 12:52 PM

Yes Kazaa is a bitch for that, 75% of their pop ups crash my IE
