Lately I've actually been clicking on some of the pop-ups and other web banners I've seen, and I've noticed a trend that makes them more annoying than I had previously thought. The reason: When you click on the pop-ups it takes forever for this redirect program to run. Even now as I am typing the redirect for this "Win a Segway" Contest has still not finished redirecting me.
This has happened three out of the three times of tried pop-ups today.

OK, I've refreshed the browser (just in case) and it is still not working.
Well, now I know one of the companies responsible for this annoyance.
Cydoor

I downloaded this thing called Spybot- Search & Destroy. It killed all the popups on my computer in one use. Very effective. You might wanna get something like that to handle popups if they're really bothering you.

BTW, what does "gatorpressure" refer to? Sounds like a gym or a self-help group.
Thanks for tips. I try to google those programs and see if I can get them running.
Gatorpressure is the name of a pressure washing business that I have started up to earn some money while I am in college.
