    What browsers are you using? All have the ability to block pop-ups but that may have been disabled by one or more of those "junk" files.

    Hi Roger if the questions are all alike then all ok in one thread, just not say for example a driver issue then a question on malware as they are distinctively different.

    But on your current question then I agree with mdonah as to what is your browser and what are the popups as you should not be getting any with current browsers as they do block most popups well.

    If you are getting random popups then you need to run the malware read me below

    BUT if you can post a screenshot of one of these popups we can advise to if they are from an app (some security apps have nightmare popups to malware).
