Chad22 · 07-29-2003, 10:11 PM

This has happened to me at least once a week and happened twice today, Maybe someone can help me with this. It starts out normal and everythings going fine than all of a sudden a bunch of Blank Webpages Pop up one right after anouther and i try to close them one at a time but they keep popping up until theirs about 20-30 Of them and My computer Freezes. Has this happened to anyone else or does anyone know why its doing this?

It happens to me only when I go to certain web pages. The best thing you can do is to have a pop-up blocker and an anti-virus software program. Use them both religiously.

My computer also freezes up sometimes, but once you restart it, provided that you can't get back into using it (sometimes that happens), you need to clear a lot of clutter on the machine. Delete old junk files and other stuff that's taking up a lot of space.

Happens to me all the time. I usually have to do Ctrl Alt Delete. I have no idea how to stop it or why its happening, but I really hate it.

Yeah, I have this problem sometimes too. I also do the alt ctrl delete thing. That stops it. Just curious........... do you have Windows XP? I do and I wonder if it is X P doing this? What do you think?

I have Norton Systems Antivirus installed and nothing ever shows up. So I don't think it's a virus.

I have XP. Every so often itll happen.. its seriously like 40 blank page pop ups attacking me. This actually happened the other day. I try the CTRL ALT DL thing, but its easier for me to just X out each box. I go fast enough and manage to get them all.
