I get this stupid pop up that tells me that if I go to
byebyeads this will stop the popups. This problem is due
to a problem with the microsoft xp messenger program that
allows this sort of stuff pass by norton and other pop up
blockers.

I think this is bull because I can't find any information
on this problem yet. No auto fix has done anything to
stop them. Does anyone have this problem? if so, can
you help find this hidden program that got passed me?

thanks everyone, mike
