Thanks Cris, I looked at their website but I don't think this will solve =
my problem because I get the pop ups when I'm NOT surfing the web.
So it must be something IN my computer that is sitting there and =
triggering the ads every, say about, 15 minutes.

this pop up stopper has also been highly recommended to me -=20

there are a fair amt of them out there - but I'd go with one of these =
that have been recommended that people have had good success with.=20

Thanks Glo,
I'll save this one and when my problem is solved I'll download it.
I'm sure glad I'm not the only one with no firewall, I find it very =3D
difficult configure it the way I want it, specially because it is in =3D
English.

Sylvia--I also have w-ME and I use a free pop-up stopper from
www.panicware.com
You can set it to make a sound  when it kills ads (cool).  I've had this =
=3D
for
a long time and no problems.  Also, if you install your firewall it will
give you the option whether to accept something or not, so you won't =3D
miss
anything.  Some of the guys on this list have offered to help configure =
=3D
a
firewall, so that's a possibility.  I should talk, I don't have one
either! --Glo
