Avoid harmful pop-ups in your browser under Windows 10/8/7
Pop-ups have reached threatening proportions. Even with all our anti-popup features, you’ll see them sneak in from time to time. These can be pop-ups or pop-under. Pop-ups open in front of your browser’s active window while a pop-under opens under your browser, and it is only when you close your browser that you see the pop-under.
Avoid harmful, dangerous and frightening pop-ups
Although there are some pop-ups that are useful and important, most of them can be irritating advertisements, adware – or even traps to encourage computer novices to reveal their e-mail address or sensitive personal or financial information. There might even be scary pop-ups you want to charge for fake antivirus software, drive-by download pop-ups or pop-ups that install malware when you close them.
