Problem with pop up blocker?

Question

I have a problem with my Internet pop ups I just keep getting pop ups that I hate and I Saw that I have it disabled what is that and by the way I think I cant make changes because of disabled cookies I just dont understand nothing.I have high speed internet and it so slow. it take 30 seconds to load. I have AT and T dsl

Answer 1

Get the Google toolbar. Will block popups.

But FIRST go to www.filehippo.com and download AdAware and Spybot.

Run them both.

Get AVG while you are there if you need antivirus. All three are free.

Answer 2

Ok, the reason you have slow internet is that DSL is not fast, they say its fast, because it improve itself to be faster than the older version of DSL. To get faster internet, is to get Cable/Modem.

For the pop-up blocker, the toolbar helps but not that much, you have to get an Anti-Pop Up blocker to do it, its perferbally in the software like umm "Mc-Afree" or "Norton Anti-Virus" those software will include the Pop up blocker. I'm not sure this will help you.

Answer 3

Ok, first of all... Internet Explorer?!?!

Internet Explorer is big, slow, insecure (you're almost guaranteed to have some viruses and spyware right now), very out of date, and not customizable.

Drop Internet Explorer from use and get Firefox - sleek, fast, safe, easy to use, up to date, extremely customizable... and it has a cool icon.
( Firefox - http://getfirefox.com/ )

Firefox has pop-up blocking built in, and with just one add-on you'll rarely see another banner ad!
( Add-on to stop ads - http://adblockplus.org/ ,
Hundreds of add-ons - https://addons.mozilla.org / )

While you're at it, dowload a few anti-virus and anti-spyware programs, oh and a firewall.
(AVG Free Anti-virus - http://free.grisoft.com/ ,
Ad-aware anti adware / spyware / malware - http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/ ,
Spyware blaster anti-spyware - http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html ,
Zonealarm firewall - http://www.zonelabs.com/store/content/company/products/znalm/freeDownload.jsp )

Install the programs and scan your computer. You might want to stay offline for this - you're not protected until AFTER you do it.

After that - password protect your computer account. If you use a wireless connection see if you can get it secured (passwords and encryption)

Make sure to update your virus and spyware scanners once a week, and check for updates to your firewall... and operating system.

Everything I've listed is free and high quality.
