Tattoo, that sounds like one of the ones that's been showing up here.
I think it's called WinFix something-or-other.

Oh, and I think I figured out what these "adult sites" are about. I'm
pretty sure it has to do with these pop-ups I'm getting. You know,
the kind about dating services, or "sexy singles". Of course,
since I'm not clicking on the ads, except to click them off of my screen,
I don't see how I can be considered "visiting" the sites.

Would turning my popup blocker to 100% get rid of these ads? They're
beyond annoying! And another thing: I just saw 2 icons on my screen
about downloading Cingular ringtones. I have a Cingular phone, but I
don't know where these icons came from, since I wasn't even at the
site!

The other issue is that I am the administrator for another board. The
smileys are in a popup screen. If I turn my popup blocker to 100%,
would it block the smiley popup? Or would the popup still work because
I'm the admin? See, that's the problem: I'm trying to get rid of popups
that cause trouble, but there are other popups that don't cause any
problems, that will be blocked if I do this.

Any suggestions/ideas?
