- Start date
my father gets these same "Endads" popups also. Annoying as shit. He even uses a popup stopper software but they still get past it.
I'll see what I can find out.

The url you mentioned sounds familiar. Is it a grey pop up box that is labled as messenger something or another?
I had been getting alot of grey pop up messenger boxes & then it stopped a few months ago but recently they started up again. My friend told me how to fix it.
If you have WinXP, do the following:
Start > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services > scroll down the list until you see Messenger & right click it & click properties > on the first tab you'll see it will be the general tab, go to the section startup type & choose disabled > press the stop button below that as well > click apply & you are done.

Windows 2000 users can follow the same exact directions to stop those Messenger grey pop up boxes.
It should Mr Leafs 
These damn things annoyed me as I would lay down & my computer usually stayed on & out of nowhere I'd hear ping, ping, ping when each new one came in & I'm like damn not again.

Guys, I put this out in another thread 2 or 3 days ago. Here it is again. I haven't had a popup for three months or so.
Popups will be a thing of the past with these two programs my friend.
This is for most of the pop ups.

This is for the Internet Explorer pop up ads.

You'll need to download both programs.

Disabling the Messenger Service is one way to stop the Messenger Service pop-ups, but keep in mind that some programs use it to display messages to you. Disabling it will stop all messages, even the ones you should receive. The best solution - get a firewall. These are totally different than IE popups.
no popups since I disabled messenger and installed those two programs. B4 it was every 20 minutes, now none.
THANKS GUYS!!!!!!
