Annoying pop-ups or something worse?

my ms-as is up-to-date. scan shows no issues.

but i still get quite a few pop-ups. these days its
from "emarketmaker" usually, but i've seen a lot of
partypoker.com and something like exit.countexchange.com

should ms-as be catching this stuff? if it doesn't that
may be ok if its "just popups" but how can (any)one be
sure?

ms-as as you call it, gets rid of spyware, not popups,
unless they are from a background program popping them up.

If you get these while no other program is running, it's
spy/adware, if you get these while browsing, ms-as can't do
squat about it. For that you need a popup blocker like
IE6-SP2's built-in one, butI'd suggest firefox.

Hope this helped.
