Is there any way at all to disable the pop up adds that are swarming the internet now days? Besides unpluging the god damn eithernet cable of course. Just curious, because while using Kazaa last night I had the same one over and over and over again, it locked my PC up once, and shut it down another time. Real annoying when you are in the middle of downloading good songs, and a good game of Free Cell.

Not really. Mozilla allows you to disable that, but that is the only browser I am aware of being able to do it. You can, of course, turn off javascript all together, but that'll break lots of things. |

For morpheus, you could change the settings in IE so the company that sent all the adds was a restricted site. It would probably work here, too, if you know the url of who was serving up all the ads. From the menu up top, select Tools, Internet Options. Then click on the securty tab, then the restricted sites icon. Click the Sites button, and add the URL (just up to the .com probably) of who is serving up the ads. Tom |
