Everyone should have a
Pop-up blocker installed. However, sometimes they manage
to get through. Don't fall for their tricks!
Most pop-ups are just
advertisements. We all know to close those!
Some appear to be
Windows Security Warnings. These will say
something like..."Windows had detected
Spyware on your machine, click HERE to fix
it". This is not legitimate, and will most
likely INSTALL spyware on your machine. Alwasy
click on the "x" in the top right corner
to close these. Never click on "OK" or
"YES" or "FIX" etc.
Some websites are more
obvious about installing spyware. They will pop up
an Install box. Never approve any programs to be
installed on your computer unless you KNOW you
want it to be installed.
