Everytime I use IE to surf practically any web site, I am
dragged down by popups that not only take up my time to
close, but also slow down many of my computer's functions.
I am endlessly bombarded with so much flashy commerce that
I am almost compelled to purchase the VXC1 VoyeurPro just
to get this to stop. I was wondering if there is some sort
of patch I can download to correct this because it is
imparing my ability to be an active web user. Mozilla does
not do this. Please help.
 
First, read other messages in this newsgroup about spyware. Make sure your
computer is clean.

Download and install the free pop-up-stopper at this website. Be sure to
read all of the instructions. There are times when you want the pop up
technology to work.

First eliminate any scumware.

Note that AdAware and SpyBot S & D will each catch some things the other
won't. Also, each need to be updated before every use, even when just
downloaded. There's also a lot more to do than just those two programs.

If trying everything at that site does not fix the problem please post back
in the same thread.
