sometimes you think your closing a box but instead your downloading something or secretly opening a door for a gnome or a troll to come and nest in your puter.

Here's my solution:

1) download the latest version of Mozilla from www.mozilla.org

2) use it for all your web surfing, making sure to turn block pop-ups from your preferences

3) delete all your shortcuts to IE and only use it on the rare occasion that a page doesn't render properly in Mozilla.

4) f#ck off Outlook and use the great Mozilla mail instead

The end result: no pop-ups and a much lower risk of getting Internet viruses without reducing the quality of your on-line experience.
Life it ain't real funky unless you got that orgPop.
