Does that happen with every website you go to? If you go to sites like yahoo.com
or google.com do you still get them? Because sites like those dont have pop ups,
and if you get pop ups anyways when you go to those sites, it is probably an external
problem like spyware...or maybe something with AOL. Otherwise, if it only happens
on some websites, its probably the website. If all else fails, get an ad-blocker
(I like naviscope)
