its not spyware though! its nothing ON my HD that's cousing it. I ran AdAware like 3 times, and it still happens.

very useful program I've blocked 736 pop ups so far. Great for Kazaa too.

Well it the programs real use was for say a tech support person to send you messages for help also for other various types of things like that.
The way companies can get to you is your Ip when you either use a program like Kazaa or Explorer then they start to bombard you, pretty nifty when you think about it straight to the source, no worries because its completely legal if they keep the messages clean I guess. But Fuck 'em I'd love to upload a bagillion viruses to all the fuckin ad servers everywhere.
