Answer» Hi, I am interested to find out what programs are available to prevent pop-unders appearing when using either Internet Explorer 10 or Firefox v21 with Windows 7. I have had a look at some of the free pop-up ad removers but there is little or no information refering to pop-unders. I don't mind admitting to having the occasional foray into adult websites, but I GET fed up with finding sites like "Live Jasmin" and others sitting on the desktop when I close Firefox, for example. Can anyone give me any advice on this ? Regards, parkman.Those are not pop-ups; they are sites that open up automatically. I don't know of any program that will stop them. Just make sure your pop-up blocker is enabled in each of your browser.Hi, thanks to Superdave for the response. I don't know a lot about these pop-up or pop-unders, so I assumed that a page that opened behind the current browser page was a pop-under. As SUGGESTED by Superdave it LOOKS like I will just have to put up with them. Thanks very much, regards, parkman•Make your Internet Explorer more secure - This can be done by following these simple instructions:
•From within Internet Explorer click on the Tools menu and then click on Options.
•Click once on the Security tab
•Click once on the Internet ICON so it becomes highlighted.
•Click once on the Custom Level button.
•Change the Download signed ActiveX controls to Prompt
•Change the Download unsigned ActiveX controls to Disable
•Change the INITIALIZE and script ActiveX controls not marked as safe to Disable
•Change the Installation of desktop items to Prompt
•Change the Launching programs and files in an IFRAME to Prompt
•Change the Navigate sub-frames across different domains to Prompt
•When all these settings have been made, click on the OK button
•If it prompts you as to whether or not you want to save the settings, press the Yes button.
•Next press the Apply button and then the OK to exit the Internet Properties page. Hi, thanks Superdave, for the IE settings, I will put those into Explorer.
