Hey all....Somebody in my house must have did a free trial with moviepass.tv Now I get a pop up with no close window avenue except running task manager. It says on the pop up to click continue to purchase the license and stop the annoying pop-up. I havent clicked that that because I don't want to purchase squat...lol Any suggestions for me? Thanx!

Go over to the computer help thread and download Ad-Aware and Spybot if you don't already have them. Links for both are at the top of the thread. Run both. Those are spyware detectors and removers. Your problem sounds like spyware.

OK have spyware/adware blocker thru TREND... But to continue with my saga...I hit continue on the pop-up. Then came a page with wanting credit card # etc....so no way.... It had a FAQ section which stated that it was impossible to load this "moviepass.tv software on accident.(a 4-stage download)....yet it gives the time/date and we did not load it...(i do have a 15 and 8 year old so it could be possible) but highly unlikely as neither one are internet browsers... seems like a scam...if i pay a one-time fee of $29.95 there will be no continuation of billing or pop-ups....who should I contact?? any more ideas?

Or Google your problem, and you will find a solution. If you are having the problem, somebody else has already had it, and there is a solution out there.

Here's microsoft's response to your question: http://tinyurl.com/ql2tc Sounds like AdAware or Spybot will do the trick, but it also sounds like you need to update your browswer software to escape future invasions. Good luck!
