You're not getting PU's from the Windows update site. If you are seeing them there and while you're typing an email, you're infected with spyware or it's something the PC manufacturer put on your computer! The latter would not surprise me. You need to do what Ben said about AdAware, AND install SpyBot, and BE SURE you update them BOTH before each time you run them. Also be sure to go into their settings and scan EVERYWHERE, not just where they set the default to scan because they WILL miss things set to their defaults.
I use Popup Stopper Pro. http://www.panicware.com/ -Clint God Bless Us All Clint Hamilton, Owner http://OrpheusComputing.com ) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Helene Leavitt" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hi all. I need a good pop up blocker.. While I was downloading all the updates from Windows yesterday.. I had walked away from the computer. for about l/2 hour. In that time ALONE. I counted 12 pop-ups that I had to X out of.. This morning.. writing email. I've gotten about 8 of them already.. I just x out of them. but they are very annoying. Any suggestions for a good one. Thanks so much. helene ============= PCWorks Mailing List ================= Don't see your post?
