MicroNugget: How to Stop Pop-Ups in Windows

In this video, Anthony Sequeira covers how to stop annoying pop-ups. He’ll discuss the two essential steps that Windows users should be aware of, including the pop-up blocking software in your browser and using software to get rid of adware that your antivirus software may not detect.

Anthony discusses how to prevent annoying pop-up ads in this video.

The first thing you should do is check to make sure that the pop-up blocking software in your web browser is configured correctly. The three most popular browsers are Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Google Chrome. Anthony will show you how to set up pop-up blockers in each of these.

If you still see pop-ups, you’re most likely infected with spyware or malware. Even if you have antivirus software with a recent scan, adware is nefariously designed to avoid detection within browsers. Anthony will recommend tools that can help clean up your system.

Finally, he’ll show you how to check your browser to eliminate any unwanted extensions.
