I know that this site is a free site that means we get pop ups when on the site but I seem to be getting a lot of popups when we are in other sites and even when we are not operating explorer. Eg the ADSL line is plugged in but the computer is not on the internet.
Is there a program or a way to stop all these popups coming down the line??
At the moment all I can do is to unplug the line.

ADSL is an "always on" connection. The popups you're getting are probably from junk programs you've downloaded. Check all the programs you have installed and uninstall any net programs you don't need (Especially PORNO). Have any net programs (Kazaa) turned off when you're not on the net. Check www.tucows.com and do a search for "popups" or summink. There's loads of programs to prevent them there. |
