Out of the blue, I'm suddenly getting pop-ups. I activated the pop-up blocker on my browser, and I assume McAfee has a pop-up blocker. I ran a full McAfee scan on my computer, but they're still popping up periodically. Any ideas? I'm running XP and using Firefox.

Getting that bad when I MSN, when I do Yahoo, not any. MSN, is going to get rid of me soon if I don't down load IUE8 or what ever it is. They also use my full name on my Hot Mail which now changed every thing on the MSN site and I can put Favorites and such on, but can't organize or take them off. I use delete a lot .
I split using both sites because there are some things I like better on Yahoo, and others better on MSN. It would probably be a lot easier for me if I were as pc knowledgable as E, CY and the rest. i do what I can. |

What appears as the name of the page along the very top of the browser window when it pops up?

It's various things, but no Mozilla or Firefox.

No porn. And none of the things that pop up are in any way objectionable. When my son was a teenager, I did have a lot of "questionable" pop-ups.

I know what you were trying to say, but that sounded really wrong.
