This was early December:and just upgraded the data
Quote:
The current Number of Items my machine is protected against is 952 (added about 80 New items in the last update Just 2 days ago )

Today 1st of January... we now have 1019 of these menaces
Another 67 added in December!
Originally I updated every 2-3 months, but it seems every month is a better method? only takes a few seconds of your time to download & upgrade

omg ive got tons of pop ups on my compter all the time. My brother said the internet is getting worse on this it seems. I have a pop up blocker and i get a bunch when i log on all the time. Seems usually the same ones over and over. I HATE THEM!

Try using POW, you can find it on Google. You'll see a popup ONCE, then, when you add it to the list, never again. Good luck!

P.S. Happy New Year to all!

I use the free PopupStopper program from Panic Ware. I get no popups. There are Ad ware and Spy ware nasties that are part of innocent downloads, which install popups on your computer.

Samantha, I strongly suggest you use Lavasoft's free Ad-aware Standard Edition to scan for and remove "malware" programs which may be producing the popups (and other nasty actions). Before scanning, be sure to use the update feature to obtain the latest support files.

Thanks so much Tom I will do this tomorrow.

This i see has different sites to pick to download this from. Are they all safe to use? There was a little thing that came up and said to use caution some of these files could harm your comptuer?

That's the standard warning when you're downloading program files, and isn't intended to indicate that any particular threat has been detected.

A safe download site is PC World magazine.

ok thanks Tom!

samantha,
I also recommend PCWorld highly for downloads. They have more types of downloads than alot of sites I've ever seen.

Thanks so much!

I have been on the UK AOL Boards and some others and found the people are using several of these Pop-up stopper Progs. with little effect They are battling against each other(causing conflicts )
But after telling them just to run this Program alone and delete the other they are reporting that the Popups have been reduced to almost nothing
