It simply runs in the background and requires next to no user intervention at all!

Have you run something like Adaware or Spybot to check the system out.

I haven't had much response, so will post again, hope nobody minds. I am getting pop ups all the time whilst browsing the web. I will click on a link I want to go to, and a pop up window will appear, This always opens in another window, and I can't seem to get the address of it. They are different each time, but one that comes quite often is Brittania. I am running windows xp, service pack 2, and have the pop up blocker switched on. I know this is on and running properly, because sometimes whilst browsing a site it asks me if I wish to allow pop ups from this site. I do run spybot regularly, but it doesn't seem to make any difference. Any help or ideas much appreciated, as this is really getting on my nerves. I have inadvertently closed the wrong window by accident, and completely lost where I was. Many thanks. Sharon _____ This Message has been scanned for viruses by McAfee Groupshield.
