pop-ups
does anyone know how to get rid of pop-ups, like actually permanently? I don't even know how I got them, but EVERY SINGLE time i change the page on the internet a million new things pop up. and also when i am on google this side column thing called 'shopper reports' pop ups and i always exit out but it never leaves. and when i click on internet explorer a message pops up saying internet explorer cannot work and i have to click okay, then it happens 3 times and then it FINALLY lets me on my homepage(google) and then another message pops up'internet explorer cannot dispaly this webpage' then i have to exit out AGAIN and try AGAIN and sometimes it finally works. but other times it takes me to 'internet explorer cannot display this webapge' even if i have perfect internet connection and i typed in the right address. so then i ahve to click back and sometimes it works. but for example, now it won't let me get on facebook at all. this is ruining my computer! can someone please tell me easy directions of what to do to make all of these things go away/stop happening? thanks!

Ok here's how we fix that. I am going to assume you are using IE.....well don't. IE isn't technically a web browser. It doesn't meet the world wide web consortium's parameters for a webbrowser. It should be emphasized MICROSOFT INTERNET explorer.
1) download and install firefox
2) google firefox addons and navigate there.
3) search for "adblock plus" and install it.
4) Once it's open it'll give you a list of subscriptions, the top one "easylist" check the box and click subscribe.
5) after that whenever there is something you want to block , click the adblock icon and it'll open a list of blockable items. Sometimes it's tough to determine which item is the one to block , but I don't get ANY pop up OR ads , not even google adsense stuff.

If resetting IE doesn't work, then do the rest of that guide, too.
