Re: Getting rid of pop up adverts

Please can you explain more about it. You say you switch on your computer and they appear. Is that before you open any programs? Or is it when you open your internet browser?

What operating system do you use (Windows something as a guess)?
What internet browser do you use?
What anti virus software do you use?

If you are using Mozilla Firefox first make sure the adblock feature is enabled.
Its next to the reload button on the toolbar...should be highlighted red.

Then run any malware and spyware programs and antivirus program you have...
