Question
When I go online, if I'm not watching, before I know it I have 2, 3 , 4 web page advertisements going on in the background. How on God's Earth do I STOP THESE. I spend half my time online clicking off ads!!!!! Thanks, Steve
These are called pop-up ads and they can get quite annoying. Believe it or not Double-Click is the corporation that produces these little buggers and they are growing in spite of other DOT.COMs crashing and burning. . . .You will have to do some digging to find POPUP KILLER. This is a small application that does what you want. Find or go to a search engine and enter popup killer. This should do it. Good luck.

Expertise
I started in digital graphics in 1989 with a MAC SE30. That little box replaced an 895 pound Compugraphics 7770. It cost me dearly! Tens years before that, I was focused on quality paste-up mechanicals using Journeyman methods. I am an accomplished typographer being able to us type as form and function. Today, I operate OS X on MACs at work and XP-Professional on my PC at home. I can answer any question with respect to Adobe Creative Suites and QuarkXpress. I am confident I can help you quickly! A lot quicker than dropping your question to a forum. I am also a digital file troubleshooter. I make designers files work within the confines of computer-to-plate printing systems.
Experience
Expert in the areas of: digital design, spreadsheet formulation, database formulation using FileMaker Pro, digital and conventional photography, file conversion (mac-to-pc and back), concepts on creating high resolutions PDFs, QuarkExpress and Adobe Creative Suite. I hold a BA degree that bears Industrial Education and Technology, School of Industrial Arts, specializing in Graphic Communication. I've kept up on technological changes for the past 20 years!
