"Premium popups"

[Phantom_RAcast]

I haven't had that happen but I did have about 3 viruses that like to attack Windows XP and exploit the flaws in your system and shut down the LSASS (or whatever it is) and causes Windows to auto shutdown. I had to get Panda Activescan to remove them for me and then I had to install a security update for WinXP. All this from popups that install things that they shouldn't >:|

uh you mean SASSER.exe ? if so thats a virus. I have Spybot Search & Destroy I used to have Ad-Aware bt Spybot Search & Destroy works faster
