    Unhappy Annoying pop up

    Hi. Help. I keep getting these annyoing pop up eventhough my Security and Privacy settings are on a default settings. And also my Pop up blocker is on High setting, but still keep getting these annoying pop up. Never had any problem before it just started about 2 days ago. Dont have any idea how. I dont surf internet that much have the same program running for how many years.

    Please help. Dont know what to do or how to get rid of them. They keep comimg back almost every 2 mins. whether I am online or the computer is on idle.

    Hope somebody can help.

    Thanks,
    Wheng

    Sounds like you are infected with spyware if you weren't getting pop-ups before and now suddenly are. Try using Spybot on the system this should clear up your issue.
