Re: How do I stop pop-up adds
Or use a decent browser (Firefox, opera, in fact anything excpet IE)
Norton IMHO is rubbish, you pay a fortune for a product that realistically does sod all more than free software that is available(AVG, Zonealarm etc) |

Re: How do I stop pop-up adds
Try a different AV client, I've used AVG for years on peoples computers and never had any problems with it (I don't use Windows so don't suffer your problems)
There are others, I'm sure people will offer their own choices, There is even an online one (PC Cillin IIRC) |
