Best bet is to dump internet exploiter and use firefox but before you do, download and install the adblock add-on. That may help some.

I'm guessing they are ads placed by Google (I've seen this on cplusplus.com.).

I don't know where to ask for help, other than this list, so I decide to ask here. When I read c++ tutorials(That I'm doing now) or something else using internet explorer, I get messages like ad served by, play casino, and like that. It's no pop ups, just this junk on almost any homepage I'm visiting. I know that this junk is'nt on any of the homepages, so there must be some virus or something in my computer. I'm using avast, and I scanned the computer, but avast didn't found anything. SO, could you help me please? /Kristoffer __________ View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/programmingblind __________ View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/programmingblind
