Its kind of very annoying to see advertisement in front of you. I think it would be great to put on the side or the bottom of the page. My laptop screen is small and it takes around 20% of it. Really annoying and distracting
Opps Sorry. My fault. Seems like my system is effected because advertisement pops in different websites too. Time to be upgraded from Xp
I do recommend you skip the Windows Vista step and go for Windows 7. You will be happy you did.
Hope you regain control of your computer.[co]
I can confirm. Although I did not skip the Vista step. Too bad. I was really happy to get Windows 7.
I didn't skip Vista either, but I never had any problems. Now I have Windows 7 and wouldn't go back.
you could always hold out for Windows 8 which I think is supposed to be coming next year.
Thank you all I do have a windows 7 (desktop Computer), but cant put on my laptop because its too old to handle it.
"No one tears a patch from a new garment and sews it on an old one. If he does, he will have torn the new garment, and the patch from the new will not match the old. And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the new wine will burst the skins, the wine will run out and the wineskins will be ruined"
You could block pop-ups within XP. Externally, You could get malware software. I use malwarebytes....It's free. I too have an old netbook that simply doesn't have the resources to run 7. There are workarounds for the outdated OS.
I dont like spyware software because they use lots of memory. Usually I feel when its effected and deal with it manually. I would rather have a virus than a Norton
Apologies: after cleaning up after some viruses, personally choose to avoid; would rather use computer for Logos Bible Study than clean up a virus. Over the years have noticed malware becoming much more sophisticated. Also remember a well known music label including their own digital rights management (DRM) software on music CD's that would install a root kit on Windows computers without asking user. Root kits can be hard to detect and difficult to remove; quicker to rebuild computer configuration using known good software.
Thankful for web browsers (that can run on XP) with optional extensions to block scripts running on untrusted web sites plus block ads.
Keep Smiling [:)]

This drew a chuckle. Way to apply Scripture!
