Pop ups

[JT]

Recently had roadrunner installed. Pop up ads are now
virtually constant. This crap is making me wish for the
old days. Have installed several popup blockers and
spyware blockers, but they keep coming. Is there
anything that just blocks them all?

Make sure you are using a firewall such as a NAT router, preferably one that is SPI
firewall also such as the Netgear ProSafe line starting at around $80. If you can not
do that for some reason their are free firewalls for personal use such as Zone Alarm
or Sygate. For browser type pop ups try the Google Toolbar which is free and works
very well. I recommend not installing the advanced options. --- Steve
