Probably because I have no idea how to delete a cookie. And I have Ad-Aware, but no idea how it works. I also have Norton Security (DIIIIEEEE Norton Firewall!).

Go to Tools > Internet Options > Delete Cookies. Hopefully that's right. >_>

I'll really miss you if you do go, Dawn... *wails*

I hope you don't have to leave. :cry: I'd suggest something to try and get rid of the weird cookie, but I'm useless with stuff like that. -_-

One time it was, but I didn't know any better and have done nothing wrong since. Yet, he's already banned me from one site because he thinks I'm doing it on that site. And now that we have a weird cookie again, like I said before, I will most likely be blamed for it and banned from this site. I'm not sure, but if I mysteriously leave and never return, this is a head's up. ;)


No Dawn, don't leave! Download lavasoft addware! It litteraly CLEANED this computer, I had computer hijacking programs on there! It is amazing!

Who will I be able to talk to in the PPT Gods?

Oh, now you're leaving? I have no advice because I'm an idiot, but I will suggest that you dowload one of those pop-up killer things... Maybe Google, or POW... I have both... Yep...

It would probably be wise if you appointed someone to take over the Legion in case you leave...

You = leaving? *runs around like a idiot* NO!!! I suggest Spybot Search & Destroy or Ad-Aware 6.0 free. JUST DON'T GO!!!!!!!!! *hangs onto Dawn's leg*

The world is crashing down as we speak. Shield your eyes, my children!

I downloaded the google toolbar when someone on here mentioned it. So far it's blocked 1047 pop-ups.

Thu Jul 01, 2004 10:23 pm

Yes, tools>internet options>delete cookies! The Google pop-up blocker works really well... if you left I would have to flame your dad... I'm not good at flaming!

Adaware is DEFINITELY the way to go... It saved my moms new computer and saved my dads computer too!

Hmm.. never heard of a cookie giving popups.. its probably an activex control, or a toolbar. i used to get those when i had an activex control from some porn website.. (i dunno how it got there...)

Don't leave! We'll all miss you if you do. :( Like almost everyone else said, get Ad-Aware.

Oh, and I've also been getting in trouble for spyware and trojans on this computer.

Tue Jul 06, 2004 8:31 pm

like everybody says, ad-aware is fantastic... i had all sorts of crap like that on my computer.... very inappropriate stuff, and it traveled through my network onto my DADS computer.... so we both had the stuff.... then we cleaned them up and now im pop-up free again...... just take some time to clean your computer then come back... i was gone for about 5 days because of that *i dont think anybody notcied, but oh well...* good luck!

Tue Jul 06, 2004 8:40 pm

Use ad-aware and spybot search & destroy to pick up some stuff ad-aware misses.

Tue Jul 06, 2004 9:42 pm

As everybody else says, please get rid of it. I would die if you left!
