I bought a pop-up blocker software by "Safeworld" at CompUSA and installed it on my work laptop. Seems to be working OK, but I have a few questions that I'm sure someone here can help me with. They are:
1. After installing it the pop-ups did decrease but I still get some. Is that because it is stopping those coming in via the internet but those on my c-drive are still there? Will those c-drive ones be zapped as they come up? 2. I tried installing it at home and it would let me register. So is this a one time deal? Do I have to buy another for home? (let me guess the answer to this one) Thanks, Paul |
