I just installed PopUpStopper24.exe its really nice and man it works beautyfull. OMG its wonderfull.


AND I DONT LOOK AT PORN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!often

no seriously.. im not one of thoes porn acolics. I dont know what was causing this

 

[punkrawket]

check your add/remove programs.... sometimes when you install programs (i.e. kazaa and such) they'll install softawre that does that

 

[UofI]

Get rid of all your cookies.. Unistall some programs that came with kaza or what not. If that dosent work, reformat your hard drive

Okay, here's what you do...

-disconnect your connection tool (i.e. cable modem, DSL router, dialup connection, etc)
-<ctrl> <alt> <del> and end any tasks not essential to running windows (OS specific)
-clear cache, cookies

reboot (leave connection media disconnected)

Still getting pop-ups?

Uh, I'm thinking you can do that by going, in IE, to Tools>Internet Options>Clear History...

 

[NikPreviousAcct]

Yeah.... if you have "delete files" click that.
if you have "delete history" click that.
if you don't have either one of those, you're not using IE and I cannot support you

[lotust]

ahh ok i did them all


all seems to be under control


thanks eneryone. I was being invaded by Cable fast porn pop ups.

 

[MournSanity]

I surf with Opera and I set it so I never get pop ups

 

[NikPreviousAcct]

Yeah, you probably had a cookie on your system that was refreshing itself

See? You gotta find the upper-class porn sites that don't have crap like that

No, Clear History is different to my knowledge. It clears the info that you get when you type in a url, and it automatically suggests you websites whose name match what you have typed.

Actually, the Germans make excellent porn, far better than what is produced here in the US. Production values are higher, the scriptwriting/acting is better (and somewhat realistic), the direction and filming is of much higher quality (better camera angles,etc.). Not only that, but German porn is, well, erotic. This can't be said for films produced in the US.

Ok i think i got it. I added it to my restricted sites.
