Viagra!

[Davidson2]

Ok, 'Pop-ups' annoying but I can normally handle it, DVD offers, Insurance offers, woooopeeee, youve won a prize....yes right, but now I keep getting bloody adverts for 'Viagra!' Now being young free and single now, this aint gona do ma street cred any good. Please for the sake of Mini Babybells can someone please tell me how to stop these.

PS: If you need the number Malcom let me know:D

I would normally suggest the likes of spybot and adaware, but, i'm thinking your pop ups are the annoying grey windows offering all kinds of things and show you a site you can subscribe to to eliminate them, at a cost of course.
Well, i'm a long term lover of Norton software and would highly recommend their internet security stuff for anti spam and ad blocking etc
Obviously it has a cost attached, but, it does eliminate the pop ups.
I have thus far not come across any freeware type programmes :(

Before Brian says it - buy a Mac!
The new Apple browser, Safari, has a built-in pop-up blocker!

[Davidson2]

Thanks for the advice... Whats an Apple? ;)

I'll check out the Norton range, had a feeling it would cost me but so much on the market, didn't want to waste the pennies that would be better spent on Mini gadgets :-D

Hahahahahhaha, thanks Gaj

Or instead of giving in to the dark side and buying the devil spawn Mac DS, you can download the Google toolbar which also has a pop up blocker in it. http://toolbar.google.com/ :D

Before Kirsty joins in, is there not a contradiction between too many "pop ups" and needing Viagra:evil::evil:
No complaints in that department Davidson; as I've always said, "It's size that counts:D:D:evil:

Reason i ask is there appears to be a block on MINI2 from AOL as they reckonthey are being hit with spam :eek:

Yup, but only if I ask for email notification, which I don't, cause it clogs me email, I just check my UCP!!!;):D

p.s. I've just realised, I get all my Mini2 stuff sent to my hotmail account, so bum goes that idea!!! (it's so I get my PM's at work too!!)

[Gismo]

Trust me, you wouldn't get your e-mails if you used AOL as your notification address, try it ;)
