When I use Yahoo Image Search a window pops up that says "Internet Speed Monitor." I tried to get rid of it

Question

I have McAfee, SuperAntiSpyware, and AVG. I can't get rid of it. I don't want to pay a guy $50 to get rid of it.

Answer 1

Do you have your browser pop-up blocker enabled??

If not, here's how to enable them:

For IE

Go to Tools >> Pop-Up Blocker >> and select "Turn on pop-up blocker" option.

For Firefox

Go to Tools >> Options >> Content Tab

Select the "Block pop up windows" option, then click OK

If so, you might try adding:

The AdBlocker Plus extension for Firefox (make sure and select the EasyElement+EasyList subscriptions.)

or

IE7 Pro (also works on IE6)

This should get rid of the pesky pop-ups

Hope this helps.
