----------------------------------- recneps Tue Mar 09, 2004 8:55 pm Malicious Programmers ----------------------------------- Wow, theres more and more bad programmers out there.... just like 20 mins ago i was searching in google, i opena site that looks good, and then all of a sudden, Norton antivirus pops up "Malicious Script Detected" Im like, Omg. I tell it to stop the action... and now, every time IE opens, or i use google, like 5 pop ups open... Its real annoying. :/ p.S. This is related to computers, internet, AND programming ;D ----------------------------------- Maverick Tue Mar 09, 2004 8:57 pm ----------------------------------- ya thats bin happeneing to me. I have a pop up blocker in net zero as well but i still get a bunch. GAY ----------------------------------- Dan Tue Mar 09, 2004 8:59 pm ----------------------------------- to many crapy virus out there thess days. they are not even good ones, a good virus whould do somting cool like get 1000s of comps DOS atack a site or somting but thess one seem to be lame and pop up adds and dum shit. i think thess crazy spam comanys are paying poleop to make viurs to let them spam more. some one needs to make a virus to DOS actack the dum spam poleop. :twisted: ----------------------------------- zylum Tue Mar 09, 2004 8:59 pm ----------------------------------- i almost never get pop ups... maybe its because i use netscape 7.1... it's a pretty good browser ----------------------------------- recneps Tue Mar 09, 2004 9:07 pm ----------------------------------- Whats even funnier, is that all the popups are for "Popup blockers" LOL ----------------------------------- wtd Tue Mar 09, 2004 9:14 pm ----------------------------------- No wonder... you're using IE. Aside from Windows Update, there's absolutely no reason to use Internet Explorer. http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/ ----------------------------------- Mazer Tue Mar 09, 2004 9:20 pm ----------------------------------- True that. I only use IE when I'm forced to. Like, links in programs and such. I'd make Firefox the default browser (even if it sucked as a browser, it's name alone owns IE) but other people use this computer and frankly I'd rather use IE once in a while than share Firefox with them :shock: ----------------------------------- wtd Tue Mar 09, 2004 9:29 pm ----------------------------------- True that.

The scroll wheel worked fine with Firefox here from the start, and it's a generic PS/2 mouse with no extra drivers, so I can't help you there, unfortunately. ----------------------------------- jonos Tue Mar 09, 2004 10:24 pm ----------------------------------- ive been loving firefox, except that the glows don't work so it kindof defeats the purpose of wasting your bits over them. ----------------------------------- recneps Wed Mar 10, 2004 1:23 pm ----------------------------------- interesting:) Ill check it out ----------------------------------- the_short1 Wed Mar 10, 2004 5:00 pm ----------------------------------- what you realy need to stop those pop up;s from comming back is.. . Its probaly in your REG under Current user / progs/ ie/ somewhere in there.. also./..] www.buypin.com the site no longer hosts it, but is has a link to it... its 100% free... and it works great... you right click it on the taskbar and click on the window that you dont want to see again from the list that it shows... then VIOLA... "BAM" its gone... and wont come back... it operates under the title of the window.... right now if i added., CompSci.Ca :: Post a reply
