How to block annoying POPUPS ?

When I try to navigate thru your Web site, I keep getting messages like:

"update Java" or "java missing," or some other attempt to trick

me into opening an illegal Web site.

I was wondering if there is a simple way to block those.

I have an anti-virus package running, but it does not appear to

be able to block those, only to block a contained virus.

Maybe you can direct me to an article that addresses this issue?

 

I keep wondering why we don't have laws against that, but they probably 

are coming from another country where the laws would not be enforced.

By the way, the popup appears on a NEW tab that the browser is opening,

and I think that originates from my end. So I am wondering what I need to look for

for stop that from happening. When I go to the Internet to search for ways to block it,

I get inundated by SPAM messages that are very difficult to sort through.

 

I get a popup when I put the mouse on one of your GREEN words also.

LIKE "SHARE FILE is FREE" for example.

for some reason "select media" on your web site doesn't work. 

It hangs and says "Out web site is down." But I can still send these messages,

so apparently it is NOT down.

I am pretty sure that the popups are something on your PC and not our web site. This site does not use Java. I'll check into the Select Media button tomorrow.
