hi,

internet?

I use FireFox for my web browser - and I haven't seen a popup or
popunder for several months. Because of security concerns I
*only* use IE to access things at MicroSoft - and even then only
if a particular page does not work with FireFox.

As well, I use Privoxy (www.privoxy.org) as a proxy server. With
the default filters and no further tweaking on my part it blocks
a very large fraction of ads - specifically include flash crap.

Check your clock and / or time zone. You're hours
ahead of the rest of the world.

The free Google Toolbar has an excellent pop up blocker built in but don't
select "advanced features" at the install unless you really want them. The
second link below shows some free secure eraser programs. I use "Eraser"
on my home computer. --- Steve

You've NEVER seen a TribalFusion popup?

You've NEVER seen a TribalFusion popup?

Never. I'd never even heard of TribalFusion until now.

I even just now used Google to find complaints about TribalFusion
popups and clicked on a few sites that are (or at least were)
using TribalFusion popups - and ... nothing. I even went to
www.tribalfusion.com figuring they would surely try to spring a
pop-up on me ... nothing happened.

Got a link that you /know/ tries to force a TribalFusion popup ?
