Hey guys, long time no see. I haven't had the net for a while, but I managed to get it going back again for FFXI. In any case, I'm on DSL, and pop ups while playing FFXI are incredibly annoying. (Any window/program/etc openning causing FFXI to boot you from the game). So I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations for a pop-up blocker.

if you are getting popus while playing a game there is a wery good posibility that you have spyware in your computer.
Check the annoncment in this forum for some spyware remover apps.
Install and run Adaware and Search & Destroy.

I've got HijackThis, and I run it after each time I surf. I'm basically free of Spyware except for one that keeps comming back even after Hjiack removes it. I suppose I'll try one of the other progs in conjunction with Hijack. All in all, I've been very happy with Hijack, which you guys recommended a long time ago.

Use AAW or S&D to remove spyware, they are better at it
