Hi, I'm new to this Newsgroup malarkey, so I hope that there's someone out
there who can help.

Whenever I close IE6 I get one of four very irritating and uninvited pop-up
ads. I've right clicked to find the properties and also viewed the html
source. This has given me the urls, which I have added to the list of
Restricted Site in the Options-Security window. I guess this isn't working
'cos they only pop-up after I've physically closed IE.

Any help gratefully received.

Use Adaware 6 to scan your computer. You can get it free from
www.lavasoft.de.
I suspect someone has installed adware on your machine. It can happen when
you download 'free' software off the web. If Adaware finds the program
causing this then it can remove the adware from your machine, but the free
software may stop working.
