That's a picture of my popup blocker. The best part is, those all came on one page. From Photobucket. I have the lamest spyware on my computer ever.

Actually, I was thinking about my MSFT one with the main character and 3D Cthulhu hanging out in the real world, but that works too!

Get Firefox.

It's just fucking better.

I had firefox, couldn't stop the popups. Advanced Browser is so much better. Faster, too.

I suggest you use a combination of AdAware and Spybot, followed by the posting of a potential hijacking log provided by HijackThis.  That way you can clear out every last instance of malware, especially if you do scans in Safe Mode where they can't hide themselves.

In addition to that, you should start to use Firefox to prevent further culmination of malicious software.  If you combine Firefox with the powerful Adblock extension, you can even block regular banner ads:

GameFAQs has never looked so clean! (Well except for the time before it sold itself out).

If you need any assistance with what I've just described, do not hesitate to ask!

I personally use Firefox with Adblock and Remove it Permanently. They work great in getting rid of the useless crap, but on some sites you  have to be careful with RIP.

Firefox is shit, Advanced Browser is much better. It's just that my mom and sister are dumb and like to use Internet Explorer. I've tried explaining to them how to not use IE, but they do it anyway.

Ugh, IE is t3h sux. At least Firefox is better than that, at any rate.



And I still need to see this Advanced Browser stuff. If it's so great, then how come it's not used NEARLY as much as Firefox?

Are you sure, I just checked the website, and it said you needed windows.  :?

Then that website is incorrect. I have it right here on my desktop.

Advanced Browser isn't used as much because there aren't as many n00bs running around saying it's the second coming of Christ like Firefox has.
