Get an antispyware program. I use 2 at once. Microsoft anti spyware and spybot search and destroy. both are free. no ads no pop ups\nYou have to kill the spurce of your problem. the spyware program will do this\nYou dont need a new browser

I have the google toolbar. It has a pop-up blocker and it stops almost everything. I think you can get it at www.google.com.

More than likely, you have been infected with spyware.\n\nSo...\n\n1) Get Ad-Aware. Download, install, run.\n\n2) Get Windows Defender. Also download, install, run.\n\n3) Get the Firefox browser. It's alot more secure than Internet Explorer, and barely lets any pop-ups through.

go to tools, internet options, privacy and uncheck block pop ups.  i think that fixes it.

Under the Internet Explorer options (Tools-Options), you can set the security options for the browser. You can block such sites. Also, ad blockers might help a bit

Hello there. \n\nWell as you probably know by now, a solution will not always work but here are a few.\n\n1. Purge all your cookie files. This means getting rid of all the cookies that are stored on your computer, because there could be some malicious ones that prevent other sites from opening. So, in Windows Explorer...\n\na. Click on tools\nb. Go to Internet options\nc. On the 'general' tab, go to the browsing history\nd. click on 'delete' Internet temporary files\ne. apply and close\nf. close all applications and restart PC for settings to take effect\n\nAlternatively...\n\na. perform steps a. and b. from above\nb. click on 'security' tab \nc. outside 'security level for this zone square'\nd. click on 'reset all zones to default level'\ne. apply and save\nf. close all applications and restart PC for settings to take effect\n\nOr...\n\nCheck below tabs in 'Windows Internet explorer' \nor below status bar in explorer windows to see if the browser has blocked the site, and click the bar to allow the active X control...\n\nHope this helps!!

There are programs that you can install that will block a lot of malicious sites and advertisements.  So far, however, no single one has been able to block all adware.  I generally just ignore it, then once in a while I will scan my system with AdAware and SpyBot, as well as other utilities that I've purchased.  I don't like having an adware blocker loaded in the background using up my resources.

If you're usine IE, go into tools>internet options>security, and tell it to not accept cookies.\n\nIf you have a firewall (recommended), you can also set up a rule blocking traffic to/from avenue a.\n\nHopr this helps.

It's not a virus, but it slows down your computer and you don't want it. get something like ad-aware.

go to tools, internet options, privacy, select high security for pop ups and slide bar at the medium high, second is go to tools, select pop up blocker settings, and select high filter level for pop ups. Please apply both. This is what I have done and it is absolutely successful.

get ad-aware SE at download.com ... you probably have some spyware/adware

You have your Javascript turned off. Turn it back on.\n\nYou can usually find the option to do this in your browser's security settings.\n\nI'm hoping you're not using Internet Explorer... too many ads get through, slow, not very secure.\n\nConsider checking out Firefox... it's faster, less ads (to none at all), faster, more secure and much more up to date.

I would do a scan for adware and spyware, you might have a trojan on your computer; my mom kept getting pop-ups on her computer from the same ad and it was kind of annoying, but I downloaded a pop-up blocker.  Mozilla works too though, it blocks most of the pop-ups but it doesn't take off the spyware itself.

you deff have a hijacker on your browser.  try mozilla firefox-it prevents a lot of adware and such.  if you still wan tto use internet explorer, first navigate to a site using your favorites, then go get ad-aware to rmove any malicious software

It's obvious. YOU HAVE SPYWARE!! Try ad-aware SE (www.lavasoft.com) or spybot (google for it). It will probably find loads if it loads pop-ups. Pop-up blockers will not work as it's pulling them up while your not even on the internet. My advice though is to STOP USING INTERNET EXPLORER. USE MOZILLA FIREFOX!!
