I am getting a lot of popups. What is the best way to get rid of them?
Pop Ups are usually a sympton of a spyware infection. There are several free programs you can use to get rid of the spyware from your system. Spybot Search & Destroy is one of them. It's a free download and they do accept donations. Another program is Microsoft Windows Defender. Also free at thie time of this writing. 2 additional packages include AVG Free Anti Virus & Ewido Anti-Spyware Free.
