My nephew is visiting this evening. He comes into Toronto a few days each week to do Extra work on movies and TV series etc and sometimes when he has back to back work he’ll stay over at our house for the night.
Usually he joins us for dinner and then sits with us watching TV in the evening. Of course both he and I have our Laptops in front of us as we work on our computers and watch TV at the same time. LOL
I don’t know what website he was on tonight but all of a sudden he said “Whoa!” His computer must have had a pop up attack. You know when you get a pop up from a web site (even if you have your browser set to no popups) and then you go and close the popup and another one and and another one opens up until you just have to shut down your computer?
Everything was popping up on his computer from ads for games and download sites to the best male enhancement products LOL.
I don’t know why that happens. I mean, he has anti-virus software on his computer.

Yeah, I definitely hate those pop up attacks. They’re like a virus spreading one after another. I just hate it! Sometimes when that happens, and I’m in the middle of work, I turn off my pc in sheer irritation. I hope the people doing these things get a life!
