A really effective and non-intrusive free anti- pop up program you can download totally free is called "pop-up stopper" by Panicware. Since I have installed it I rarely if ever get any more pop-ups. It works quite stealthy to the point that you really don't even realize it's there and it does not slow your system in any way. It also installs upgrades from time to time which it will check automatically and takes only a few seconds. If there is a pop-up that you do want, (such as an address field or pictures in their own window), you just hold down the control key to by-pass it. The web page to get it is here: http://www.panicware.com/popupcenter.html Rob Goodale, RPT Las Vegas, NV > http://www.experts-exchange.com/Operating_Systems/WinXP/Q_20716487.html > > Try this site for info on getting rid of popups.
