5. No, I don't know what it is for, |
|
I close it with a right click.
But this is the only place I get one. I thought it was odd.

7. Make sure you have popups blocked for this site. Some of the |
|
popup blockers let you customize each site.

2. Popup? What's a popup? |
|
The only ones I get are the irritating Flash popups (which are unblockable).
Also, I don't come to DU through the main page; I have the main forum page bookmarked, and use that instead.

13. You should bookmark the main discussion page, then... |
|
good way to bypass the popup, and easier than having to search for DU every time you come here...

8. Well, I just close it. |
|
But sometimes I get a server not found page or can't open that site or something.
It seems like it comes and goes in waves.:shrug:

10. I do. I was actually wondering this very same thing today |
|
It's one of those "YOUR COMPUTER MAY BE IN GRAVE FUCKING DANGER" ones
They want you to "check" it with their product. It pisses me off.

18. I get it too......... |
|
even with popup blocker it finds its way around it from time to time. I use spybotkiller to kill it off. I think it is an internet explorer related popup.
