I don't use Internet Explorer because it would just close out on me for no reason when i was in the middle of stuff. So now I use Ace Explorer... but Internet Explorer keeps giving me crazy pop ups and they won't stop. In order to even use my computer I have to run in safe mode. How do i get rid of these pop ups? Please help, I can't afford a new comp and I have alot of school work to do and I can't do it with my computer being crazy!!

I can understand your frustration.It can be very annoying and there are still people who just simply put up with it and think its just normal part of computing!!
I dont think you have any virus or spyware and i would not bother downloading any..
I would recommend trying another Browswer not affiliated with Internet Explorer.. Thias will determine and eliminate any other problem..Also Firefox is a much better Browser which im sure you have heard of..Try this as it has a powerfull popup blocker. and if your still having problems you will need some anti spyware which is what it will be.
Free Firefox download.
