I have this problem. I keep on getting popups and they sure are annoying, no doubt.
I don't understand, how do you get popups? Is it some sort of inevitable thing that I just can't avoid? Do I have to buy some software to just not be infected? It doesn't make sense.
I had another computer that got popups for no apparent reason. I said, "fine, whatever", but then it got bad. My other computer slowed down a bit and then got a virus. It shut the computer down every time I tried to get on. I can no longer use that computer. Now, I use this lesser computer to substitute the other one that got messed up.
Now, I'm getting the same popups, from "outerinfo" and other such annoying spammers. Three new advertising icons were placed on my desktop, all on the same day, just like the other computer. I fear that the same thing will happen to this computer, and I cannot let that happen.
Now, I don't understand why this is happening. I wish I could do something about it, but I don't understand it at all. How can something like this come on my computer without my consent? How can I remove this, and how can I prevent this from happening in the future? Argh.
