envirojeff Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 You'd think with the boat load of cash that the NFL brings in that they could throw a little more into a better site? I hit 7 pop-ups a few minutes ago when I opened the page....WTF! Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 Popups? Shite, man, even with IE, if you've upgraded to XP SP2 you should never ever see em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best browser I've ever used. 267058[/snapback] Yep...if you are dial-up like me, in addition to tabbed browsing and ease of use and ease of customization, it is dramatically faster than IE.

CoachChuckDickerson Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 I doubt NFL.com has 7 pop ups. Might be some type of spyware from the "other" sights you visit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell your IT guys that they are all fired.

gantrules Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 My daughter was monkeying around on the home computer on Saturday night and I heard the infamous "Uh oh". I thought she had accidently loaded in some spyware so I went through the usual routines to get it out because we were being bombarded with pop ups. I did the full scan with Norton, did the Adware scan, did the Microsoft Antispyware scan. Looked good. So, I go and plug back in to the internet and this time I get an error message from Norton saying we have a Trojan.startpage virus. Well 10 hours later I still couldn't figure out how to clean this virus out.... So, I come to work today all in a tizzy and get on symantec.com and find out that Norton can't scan some of the files in Windows because Windows blocks it out. Unfortunately this is where this virus gets in to. So now I've got to go and monkey with it again today. But, this time I have instructions!!!! Damn kids....
