when you minimize kazaa, generally pop-upa will appear right after, usually two...it's the fucking most innoying thing in the world

but that's what us computer lug heads who don't know what the scoop on, hip software get

kazaa blows

I have Kazaa Lite and I don't get any pop-ups from it
However, I HAVE gotten some while surfing Ravewave, but I get lots of pop-ups anyways.

you could have some kind of software installed in your computer, such as Gain -- check yr program files.

you definetly have some sort of adware installed on your computer. it's probably gain. what it usually does is give you popups semi-related to the website you're visiting. for example, if you visit a bank's website, gain will give you a popup to sign up for a credit card.

does the popup look like an internet explorer popup or like something else? if you hit ctrl-alt-del and look at your task menu, you'll probably see gain listed there.

anyways, i'm rambling. just download ad-aware like maskinn suggested, or a similar program.

also, download kazaa lite or kazaa lite k++

I run ad aware and a virus scanner on my computer and my problem isnt pop ups.. Its more that when I click on a thread I get taken to a porn site.. ALL of them.. The funniest one i got taken to was a pee site..(see bebe's pee on each other)

And everytime I run a program to clena it up it gets worse.

download something other than adaware to clean your pc. you have a program hijacking your browser.

because it isn't a virus.

try some of these programs. also try resetting some of your browser settings.

get adaware
never install kazaa

and never install anything from Gator/GAIN.

Spy/Adware aren't viruses and do not damage software. They simply reside in your memory collecting information about websites you visit, then after collecting enough information will start displaying ads targetted to your assumed tastes.
