My computer completely froze. I had to turn it off at the plug. Ran McAfee and no virus detected. Ran Microsoft AntiSpyware and it quarentined one item. I find it very strange that I have had no problems with my computer in 5 months and then this all starts happening with the appearance of these ads!

I've informed GR Jay. I think it's something to do with the site rather than my computer. I have never had pop-ups since I got this computer back in November and I've had several today on this site only

OK for me. Perhaps you need to block Flash. If you're using IE6, do Tools, Manage Add Ons, Add Ons that have been used by Internet explorer. Look for Schockwave Flash Object where filename is Flash8.ocx. Disable it and OK your way out. It works for me.
