Yes I or significant other somehow managed to get something on our computer
that makes annoying pop ups come up even if we are not surfing the web.(on
our desktop) I have used my McAfee virus scan repeatedly and used a restore
point from way before this started happening to no avail. But using my virus
scan has brought to my attention = many adware and adware nic tech pups=( on
a daily basis so I believe that is where the problem stems from )
By the way these pop ups are always advertisements and I think this problem
may have arised from my wife accidently clicking on a WINFIXER advertisement!
I do know how to reformat through DOS but have so very much information on my
puter that I would rather not go that route! Thank you so much for any and
all help! Oh and yes I do have McAfee firewall if thats any help!
