I use pop up stopper and have noticed lately that when I leave DPC and go to my web page (or a blank start up page) I get the little pop up notice that it blocked a pop up add
DPC does not display popup ads... however, there are some elements of this site that do not work properly for me when I have a popup ad blocker running...
Absolutely none. DPC doesn't do ads. Strange that this is happening. It's not from DPC though. I wonder if it's a "Messenger Service" ad. Try running adaware (adaware.com, I think) This will get rid of any spyware pop up things...There is also a way to get rid of those Messenger Service popups too. i'll post how to get rid of those in a minute. gotta look it up.
If you get Grey pop ups that are titled "Messenger Service" here is how you can stop those from coming up.
-- Click on the Start button in the taskbar
-- Open Control Panels
-- Go to "Administrative Tools" (XP users may need to go to "Performance and Maintenance" first, then "Administrative Tools")
-- Double-click on "Services"
-- Scroll down to "Messenger"
-- Double-click on "Messenger"
-- Change the Startup type to "Disabled"
-- Click "Stop" to stop the service
I know a lot of people that get these, and are thourally annoyed by them. You have a pop up stopper, but this will help someone that doesn't.
Try running AdAware on your machine. Get it from Lavasoft. It could be some bad software that got on your computer that is trying to insert ads in web pages.
