My family's computer is having lots of pop-ups and a lot of them is porn. I was wondering if there was something I can run on this computer to clean it from these and help it run faster.

Also you download and use Netscape 7.0 or a Mozilla browser which has built in pop up stoppers.

Get AdKiller Daemon. It works great and allows you to add popups as they, well, pop up. It's a freebie.

The free google toolbar has a built in popup stopper ! I installed it and have not had one popup since ! The toolbar has a couple of other neat features also ,like auto fill ,it automatically will enter your name address etc. when you click on the auto fill button ,when purchasing or registering with a web site . I tried it because I was getting so many popups ,as I stated ,once installed the google toolbar took care of my popup problem .
Good Luck Nick
