I get a pop-up from this site, too.

If you have pop-ups then you must have some existing spyware on your computer.

Run a spyware check using Adaware or Spybot and post the scan logs. To post a scan log, type "print screen" and go to a photo-editing program and open a new file and paste it. Then crop it and attach it as an image.

Or you could simply copy and paste the results to here.

install Microsoft's free Antispyware and go to Windows Update and make sure you have all the critical updates and Service Pack 2 installed

Hey, thanks. But the pop-up really doesn't bother me at all. One extra click won't kill me, needless to say. However, since you've already provided a link, might as well, huh? But I'm gonna have to do this tomorrow, or maybe next weekend. As of now I have too many things running at once already. (I have JCreator [for java programming] open and that takes up a load of my computer's memory).
