Popups? - 02-24-04

Everytime I open my homepage, I get a popup. No matter what my homepage is set to, it's the same one; fucking ebay education. Now I've noticed that I get one when I open my My Music. WTF? My fucking music?!

I told my computer savvy cock supplier, who works in tech support and he told me to get some kinda google popup thing, which I did, but it's STILL doing it.

This shit has to be on my computer for it to be popping up for my music, right? What could this possibly be?

Its spyware, most likely. Get a little program called adaware (www.adaware.com?) and run it, it will clean that shit out of your box.

Think of it as computer douche.

Download Panicware pop up blocker. It works great MOST of the time. But you will occasionally have a few pop ups.

I already dled a popup blocker. I don't think dling something ELSE is going to help this. Obviously, it's something that I already dled. I'm gonna go with fr0g on this one, but not use whatever he said because he's an asshat.

go download spybot search & destroy. it will run through your system and tell you everything that has the potential to cause pop ups or change your homepage and shit like that. you can delete them directly from the program. it kicks ass.

adaware works. regulating yourself to ignorance gets you nowhere.

you need to put a really powerful magnet next to your hard drive and then urinate in the floppy slot.

that should stop the pop ups

I run Firebird/Pheonix/whatever name the browser project is now called. It blocks pop ups nicely


Keep me rather in this cage and feed me sparingly if you dare
