Now its come to a stage were as soon as i get onto the net, my homepage being the Yahoo search engine, has pop ups, and being the usless pointless pieces of shiznit that they are, i close them, but even this now is crashing and freezing my comp, therefore, i have to hold the button for the 10 secs to shut it down!

ive been on the net today for most of it, as im having a day of rest from life! and already its crashed about 10+ times, why is this happening? its getting very annoying!

it also happens when i change page address, or have more than 5 windows open, or even make too many commands too quickly!

even opening a Word file whilst on the net will crash it, not matter what i do, it crashes, someone please help me!

cheerz!

Sounds like a memory thing, how much memory have you got?

download ad aware. and run it. that will stop the popups and possibly stop the crashing. there is possibly a program called ' GAIN ' that will be cuasing the popups

another one is download the google search bar, this stops popups. it also allows you to let some popups happen, i.e. ones you want to happen wen u click on a link.
