I am being swamped with pop ups and my browser seems to run slow and sometimes will not let me access certain places (it says that the link cannot be found) when I know that I can, I have to computers running. Recently when I turn on my computer a pop-up says that I have a parasite and I need to install virtual bouncer. I have not done this, what do I do to correct? Please help. I am currently running WindowsXp Proffesional for windows 2000. Thank You Lori

Download, install, and run Ad-aware 6 and Spybot SD. Do not listen to anything the pop-ups say as they will further mess up your PC.

Do download AdAware and SpyBotS&D and also PopUp Stopper Free Edition. I use it and it's very effective. You won't be disappointed. http://www.panicware.com/product_downloads.html

And just to repeat:
Never ever click on any unsolicited popups, or spam mail.  There are malicious people 
out there on the internet, and they are hoping some sucker will click.

By the way, popup stopper is okay, but I think installing the Google toolbar is an 
even better way of stopping popups that come through I.E.
