Preventing pop ups

[Jaydee58]

Every time I click links contained in highlighted text I go through instead to an annoying pop up survey. The highlighted text shows as 'text enhanced'

Theree doesn't seem to be a way of preventing this. Do you have any advice on how I can stop it?

Hello Jaydee58 and welcome to Seven Forums.

Couple of things you could do. Delete your temp files, cookies, and browsing history.

While you're in the Internet Options dialog box, click on the Security tab > Restricted Sites icon > Sites button and type in the www website address of any site you want to restrict. Close/OK your way back out of the dialog boxes.



You could also look into using a different browser (specifically, Firefox) and using a free add-on called NoScript.

NoScript - JavaScript/Java/Flash blocker for a safer Firefox experience! - what is it? - InformAction

There are other ad blockers available for IE but I'm not sure if any are free. Perhaps others will jump in with suggestions. I've been using AdMuncher for a couple of years with good success.
