I think I have a re-infection of something that What The Tech helped me remove last April. I am getting random IE browser pop-ups while I am working in Firefox. The pages that pop up seem to have some relationship to some of the tabs I may have opened in Firefox. If I leave the computer for awhile, I find a number of browser windows opened. I ...

However, Yahoo and Windows then each have a site that pops on the screen so my turn on takes some time. In attempting to stop those two from poping up, I can not find them in my Windows Explorer Start menu. I recalled that they were probably in my registry editor but in ...

Hello, I have been having problems with Mozilla. They started last night. About every 5 minutes a window will pop up with 6 or 7 tabs opened in it and they are all randomized web pages. When i try to search for something in google and i click on a link, the link is redirected to another site. Your help would be much appreciated as it's very annoying. Thanks in advance!

I just have to say this. There are WAY TOO MANY pop up message boxes going on with this app, and I think you will find it is the cause of some of the loading and other issues we have! The other night I opened Farmville, trying to get to my farm, and had a pop up to thank those who fertilized, won daily lottery coins, gifts received, etc. This is seriously causing lags in the way this ...

What do I have to do to disable all system pop-ups in WinCE 6 R2? I read Mike Hall's post about Kiosk mode [1] but that's not going to work for us because we still want the standard graphical Explorer shell. We plan on hiding the taskbar and start menu and clearing icons off the desktop but need an easy way to make sure that no pop-...

About three days ago I downloaded an unsavory program and 'installed' it, infecting my computer. Immediately after dbl clicking the file no less than 20 processes stopped working and shut down. A whole flurry of windows opened with fake spyware removal requests, etc. The only protection I had at the time was windows defender, and it ...

Hello good people, Problem was first noticed in IE7 when links found via google ended up going to various other unexpected sites. Initially, a bunch of pop ups claiming Antivirus System Pro would solve all my problems showed up. It also seemed to disable my Shaw Secure (similar to F-Secure) AV. Various windows update alerts were popping up and changing and there was so much activity on the ...
