Thread: Huh? Pop-ups?

  1. #1
    sometimes when i dl a movie file it will start up IE and bring forth a SHIT LOAD of pop-up ads that not even pop-up stopper can catch. I have'nt been able to recognize what files may carry this type of unwanted mayhem. Any clues? Thanks in advance.

    PS: whoever puts out those ad infested files should be killed. Period.

    yeah, porn files and other non-porn files as well. I was surprised to see pop-ups generated during a non-porn dl so I guess nothing is safe now. damn.

    *avi/*.mpeg files should be free from pop-ups (if they are true *avi/*/mpeg files anyway)

    Heh, now that my PC was infected by a virus recently I have been running adaware, spybot S&D (my personal fave....the author of this program is a genius) AND liveupdate every other day with virus scan. I&#39;m very paranoid now. lol. I run those as well as a couple of other ones. You HAVE to stay vigilant especially when you are a vid freak like I am.

    oops, edit, this is the kl related thread :">
    I am just a worthless liar. I am just an imbecile.
    I will only complicate you. Trust in me and fall as well.
    I will find a center in you. I will chew it up and leave.
    I will work to elevate you just enough to bring you down.
