Alley Cat Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 I did search neowin before posting. I have Fake MSN web messager popups and I am not sure why they show up, Messager is disabled in Services (has been for about 4 days now) and still a web messager popup shows up that appears that it come from msn.

Jamushroom Veteran Posted November 2, 2008 Veteran Share Posted November 2, 2008 It's a spam thing from that page. I also see it popup whenever I'm on a site with lyrics. It's nothing to worry about :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Lyle Global Moderator Posted November 2, 2008 Global Moderator Share Posted November 2, 2008 Those are actual web advertisements, not Messenger ones. People use them now to display ads on the bottom right of the screen to trick people into clicking on it, leading them to more ads / porn sites. I see them all the time. Unless you notice an actual window popup on your taskbar, just ignore it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad. Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 Yeah they're ridiculous. I often get them when I'm looking up tabs or lyrics to songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetsam Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 You can disable those pop ups by disabling js on those sites. I disables js on all sites and enable them only on the sites I trust. It also helps get rid of a lot of ads especially the annoying ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
