I'm fixing someone's computer, can anyone identify her pop-up problem?

That's not too bad, I've had it in the 1000's before, after a week of the PC running with Kazaa, Win MX and Lime Wire running.

Pop-up problem? Not sure I understand.

I run Ad-Aware on a regular basis. Usually turn up 6 to 10 tracking cookies.

Is this person an AOL user?

No, that's what's so surprising. The machine is possessed!



So many people are in need of a book or something..."Tips for Using the Internet." The sale of such a book would compensate people like me who get paid to fix this kinda stuff.
