since im at the end of this...
ill keep it short and simple...
have some antivirus and antispyware softwares installed....
have a firewall installed...
have a registry cleaner and WINDOWS washer for deleting excess files that have been used by or infected by the adware,virus or spywares that maliciously giving you headaches...
NOW..the last part is DONT DOWNLOAD ANYTHING WITHOUT AN ANTIVIRUS OR ANTISPYWARES...
but if you really into downloading anything then YOU MUST HAVE ONE INSTALLED...
another tip...USE A PARTITIONED DISK...
ex: one 60gig HD partitioned into 3..20gig each
that will make 3 drives with 20 gig each..
use the first 20 for your windows(and just for windows and drivers alone)dont install anything here...
use the 2nd 20 gig for your KNOWN applications like msoffice, adobe, macromedia etc...
use the last 20 for your downloading...then if your SURELY 100% having a clean files after downloading..then u can transfer it to the 2nd..THIS IS DONE FOR PROTECTION...

I think you may have some sort of virus in the form of adware/
spyware in your computer when porn pics keep on appearing on your screen. You have already invited it into your computer
without you knowing it when you visit the porn sites.
There are a few ways to counter or stop this irritating pop-ups.
1. Turn off your computer completely ;
2. Clean-up unwanted programs etc in your computer
3. Install a reliable security software such as "zone-alarm
security suite", norton anti-virus/anti-spyware; BitDefender
anti-virus/anti-spyware etc.
The above security software program really helps to block/
prevent adware/spyware, pop-up advert in your computer.
Thus, you can now surf the net securely.

Find out what site the pop ups are coming from and block that site from communicating with your p.c by using the privacy and security settings in IE > INTERNET OPTIONS.
Turn on your pop up blocker setting.
Don't set it too high though because some sites use pop ups to show some info and if it is turned off then the page wont show correctly
Make sure all users are only viewing age applicable sites by using parental controls.
4 kids use my pc of different ages they all have a parental control setting on their accounts and I can also look through everything they've seen and typed (useful for all parents, I found one surfing for sites containing the words I've never heard of)
My pop up blocker notifies me when it blocks something by a symbol on the bottom toolbar right clicking that symbol gives me the option of allowing the pop up to be shown or keeping it blocked

I'm assuming you already have a firewall and antivirus software, so let's jump right to the adware that's causing your popups.
You need a spyware killer that will find the programs on your hard drive responsible for the porn popups and remove them. The best free one is Spybot Search & Destroy (www.safer-networking.org/en/). If you are willing to pay for one, get Webroot's Spy Sweeper ($25, I believe...www.webroot.com).
Download, install and run whichever of these you choose. The program will find all the gunk on your system that you don't even know is there and help you remove it.

The same thing happened to me-and I never, ever go on porn sites-this is a strong indicator that you may have a trojan on your computer-I strongly recommend Twister antitrojan/virus-Its free for a month and It will check your registry for any malware, spyware, etc and clean them all-I tried several different programs-McAffee, NoAdware, and others, nothing worked-I installed Twister and every harmful virus, trojan, etc. was completely wiped out-It will also run in the background and notify you of any attempted or successful intrusions and stop them in their tracks, it does not use much of your computers resources either

Am sure you use Internet Explorer or some ad supported software.
Download SpyBot, update its definitions and run it. It'll figure out most malware and help you get rid of the same.
In future be cautious of what you install. Some programs install third party softwares like Gator. Check your add or remove programs for warez you dont need or didnt install and get rid of them.
You dont need to be a rocket science engineer to maintain your computer. Just keep your eyes open. Good luck.

One method is to use the Yahoo! toolbar which can be downloaded from yahoo.
Another method is that if you are using Internet Explorer,
1. Open Internet Explorer.
2. Go to Tools-> Internet Options.
3. In the content tab, In Content Advisor Section, click enable.
4. If you have set a password, then type the password.
5. Or else, a window will open.
6. In that window, decrease the level of all the items(Language, Nudity, Sex, Violence).
7. Apply the settings and try surfing again.
Best of luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi, there are some virus with your IE browser, you can try Norton or Mcafee to remove the virus, but you should pay for the software.
i also recommand you to use firefox with Google toolbar, which can disable the virus, becasue the virus can only run on IE.
firefox can block any any poppus and disable any virus and spywareware on webpage, so, firefox is much safer than IE. as you know, most of the virus is spread throught internet and webpage.
firefox is much smaller than IE, so i run faster than IE.
download firefox for free:

Best Wishes && Good Luck!

Stop going to porn sites. If it's not you find out who is and nip it in the bud. Secondly, you probably have spyware on your computer too. So, get a program like Norton that has a pop-up blocker and anti-spyware.
