I started getting a bunch of blocked ones on this site today...so I did my MS security updates. All gone now.

I really think that we should start an international Darwinian system for dealing with new types of pop ups, virus writers, etc. I propose having 365 day/year open season on them. Limit the weapons to non-projectile hand wielded instruments. That would make for a particular fitting end for them...as it could take awhile to bludgeon them to death...sort of like eradicating a chain of pop-ups. I think we could end the problem in a few weeks.
