Dazza290 Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 Hi all, Im sure I've had this before but a small popup box comes up about every 5 minutes saying I have a critical system error. All it is though is a popup to get you to buy an anti virus program. Does anyone know how to get rid?? Also, a pop up will flash every couple minutes or so saying I have a virus (Networm or something??) but that is also just a popup to get you to buy anti virus software. Any help on that too Thanks in advance Dazza Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F2-Fan Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 You can also turn off the majority of POP UPS in your Component Services part of Windows in Control Panel. It doesn't stop the POP UNDERS though. But switching off has stopped 90% of the pop ups I was getting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
