Are you referring to web site pop-ups - or to "sales" messages to a member?

 

When I set up my girl friend's father's machine a few weeks ago, I was astonished with the latter. AOL support had me disable a Windows XP function that stopped them from showing up.

 

PITA...

Type in Pop-up or Pop-up blocker or something like that in their KEYWORD search. They have a box when you can cancel the pop-ups!

AOL uses the built-in Windows Messenger service for sales pitches? That's foul. I hate them.
