I was on Jalopy Journal then switched back to the HAMB and
I have closed the same popup 5 times.
"Edmunds.com are you looking for a Lincoln"
Popups that snuck past my blocker.
Is this part of the new JJ commercialization??

I get no pop-ups off of either of my computers and browse here daily. I don't think Ryan would do that to us you must have picked up some adware somewhere else. Theres a program you can download called adaware thats should be able to find it and eliminate it.
Adaware Download (http://www.download.com/Ad-Aware-SE-Personal-Edition/3000-8022_4-10045910.html?part=dl-ad-aware&subj=dl&tag=top5)

TZ,
That ad-aware is spyware of it's own.
YOu might wanna try Spybot search and destroy. It's free and won't (that I know of) install it's own spyware.

LavaSoft AdAware is a free download I run a few times a month, go to LavaSoft and throw it on... you'd be amazed at what kinda shit sneaks in.

Thanks,
My IT guy at work suggested AdAware and I run it once a month or so.
I ran it yesterday and don't seem to be getting the popup anymore.
I figured it would be blocked though, or at least be a popup from a porn site
instead of something car related. Each get equal time because I am not
prejudice.
