    Then use ad-aware to get rid of the adwares.

    I'm getting popup attempts here. I am loath to see what they are behind the blocker. Any porn and bye bye job.
    Our genes maybe in the basement but it does not stop us chosing our point of view from the top.

    Yeah I posted about this a month ago or so. A nasty little installer prog promoting MSspyware remover or something of all things. rofl?

    And I currently have a nasty one right now. Its attempted to open IE 20 times already. My browser keeps blocking its url and about to run spybot. (ah... SpyBot search and destroy 1.4)

    *Sigh* there goes my enjoyment of TheGuild forums for a little while...

    Actually, anyone got advice how to block these even if you have your security/options set to high?

    Cheers :)


    oh, and g'day Papewaio I'm from Brisie myself :)

    Don't advertise.
    I get no pop-ups with Microsoft Internet.
    So there!



    If I was smart, I would have a witty punchline in this sig that would make everyone ROTFL.

    I'm not smart.
