im getting EXTREMELY frustrated with this popup that keeps on spawning on my desktop. one that has a big stop sign and says "i hate pops" and has a button to go to their website to stop their popups. ive run adaware, spybot, adsgone, spyware remover by bulletproof, and a whole volley more. each time neutralizing more spyware but I CANT DEFEAT THIS ONE. ive disabled ALL popups at all 100% of IE popups and this one STILL comes up. ive concluded it must be locally triggered because it still commences even when the computer is disconnected from all networking.
yes, ive run virusscan. mcaffee, AND norton all updated. nothing. i want to kick this guys @$$. i know its spawned by him because the popup's stop picture is linked to "http://www.ihatepops.com/___.gif" etc etc. and thats the website you go (by clicking the popup) to to buy his software for $20 to remove his OWN damn popup. DAMN. this should be illegal. its EXTREMELY aggravatiing. ive cleared cookie, temporary internet files, and NO, yes, my internet security settings are set to default. in fact, it still happens even when i set internet secrity to high. ARGGH so frustrating.
i really want to flame this "company" they are really pissing me off. this popup is giving me headaches. its the ONLY one left. and ive spent days trying to destroy it. i dont want to reformat, because this computer has a lot of stuff i cant afford to lose, and its not convenient to reorganize. if i absolutely cant defeat this popup, i at LEAST want to take a jab at him if possible. possibly a flame email. ive never flamed anybody. but i REALLY want to.
