Okay, seriously... WTF!?
When did AOL instant messenger turn into a freakin pop up whore??
Everytime I sign in I'm bombarded with like 13 pop ups at once, and if I'm very luck it doesnt crash my damn system! Most of the time however, it warps my AOL windows and makes it so I can't see the messeges that I type and recieve... completely negating the purpose of an INSTANT MESSENGER!!
Before anyone asks, yes I have a pop up blocker, but its built into my MSN browser. The AOL pop ups use IE, and my blocker wont bridge the gap appearently. Anyone know how to fix this? :-o

Pwned by spyware!
That or someone dropped a bot on you. On or the other. Check your machine with a good anti-spyware like Ad-Aware, and Spy bot. That should fix the problem.
And this web site will help it from happening again.

I seem to have fixed my problem. I un-installed/re-installed IM, this time makeing sure NOT to check the box for "AOL pop up blocker"... no more pop ups!
Appearently their pop up blocker creates pop ups instead of getting rid of them. If I were them, I would take that particular program back to the drawing boards and go in a different direction with it. =/

Firefox is standards compliant so if that happened there's something in the coding that is not.
