I am having a problem with pages opening on their own. They are porno pages, not just pop-ups, but full web sites, very grahic and very annoying. Anytime I open a page, about 5 of those will open, and some are hard to get rid of, they won't close. Then once I finally get them closed, I get this privacy alert that won't go away until I reboot. It stays on top of everything, so I can't read or see anything under it, no matter what. I have ran a virus check and it says that it is probably the adware and spyware in my registry. But I don't know how to get rid of them, or if I can do this without messing up anything else. I have changed my settings to ask first before it saves cookies, which is very aggravating in itself, because you have to click no or yes several times before it goes away. I don't want to change my security setting, because I am an artist, and save lots of pics, and some of the artist I visit do have mature themes on them, or graphic nudity on their sites, so that won't help me either. The pages that are opening are not art work, they are very nasty porno pictures, and very detailed....Can anyone suggest anything for me to do without ruining my computer, since it is fairly new.....Thanks
