I'm getting a PCH.com unwanted ad popup on my Yahoo email. I've tried several attempts to remove this annoyance with no success. How can I remove this trouble for good? Thanks, George

Hi,

Did you  try AdBlock or blocking all pop-ups (browser prefs)? If you need you can always open them later with a single click, at least Opera has it.

Yes, I have tried setting the BLOCKING ALL POPUPS and that does nothing. I've tried system restore to go back beyond the date this annoyance started and I've searched everywhere to find where this file was residing and got nothing. I've even ran a spyware, adware program to remove it and nothing so far works.

@Framer

You Could Try The Free CHROME Browser And A Free Extension For It - 'Better Pop Up Blocker' Version 2.1.6.

This Extension Can Be Configured.

Good Luck.

Could a Super-Cookie be the culprit?
