Other than Norton Internet Security 2008 software, what other program is there 2 stop severe pop up

I have a 5 year old HP Pavilion a630n desktop and I just recently got internet acess on this computer. I was using fine for about 3 months and now all of a sudden I get a whole slew of pop-ups that I don't want to see or deal with. I got Norton Internet Security 2008 software package %26 still I get spyware %26 very adult oriented pop ups. I tried going through the Tools=%26gt; Internet Options=%26gt;Security Tab option to clean up %26 permanently REMOVE each pop up that my poor old computer gets inundated with.



Other than Norton Internet Security 2008 software, what other program is there 2 stop severe pop up %26 spyware?free antivirus download



Use spybot s%26d http://www.safer-networking.org/



and superantispyware: http://www.superantispyware.com



Install them, update them, and run complete scans with both. Do this regularly about once a fortnight to clean out any crap you've picked up along the way.. And to get less spyware/adware in the first place, install mcAfee siteadvisor: http://www.siteadvisor.com (make sure to get the free version) Then simply don't go to the sites marked with a red 'x' in your google/yahoo search results, because they are sites that may harm your pc (such as installing adware, spyware, viruses, trojans etc)If this doesn't fix your problem, go to any one of these forums:
