hi gjagg,

i was working one of those crosswords the other day and a pop-up ad took over the entire screen and told me to click on enter. the tool bar was gone, so i turned the computer off and re-booted. i'll have to work up some nerve before i go back to the crossword site!

tuppence2's rhyme site sounds interesting. i'll report back after i get a chance to check it out.

Hello contralto,

Have you got "Shoot The Messenger" loaded from Steve Gibson's site,
it stops these Windows Messenger spam pop-ups (note - not MSN Messenger). Take a look there.
Try his "Shields Up" while you are at the site.

Bye,
Penny.

hi, penny,

yesterday i installed google toolbar and enabled the pop-up stopper. i will see how that works. i'll try to remember the steve gibson site as a plan b, if necessary.

i appreciate your input

bye,

penny,

i love the french quote in your signature my french has been quite neglected, but i think it refers to a day without laughter, right?

Hello contralto,

Thank you. Yes, that's right. What is a day without laughter, is the gist of it. You are clever! I don't speak French but love the sound of the language and the few words I know. Cedric is the person to ask about any French language queries.

Steve Gibsons site is a very good one on which to test the security of your computer.

Best wishes,
Bye,
Penny.

Hi contralto:

I'm sorry that link gave you problems. The Google Toolbar that Penny suggested should prevent any further popup nightmares. I don't use the Google Toolbar but have heard nothing but good reviews. I do use a another popup stopper though.


Hi Penny:

Glad you are enjoying the crossword link.

Hello GoJo,

The crossword site is excellent. I use Mozilla for browsing, not Internet Explorer, and it has its own pop-up blocker, so I don't get any problems.

My sister got hit by a "nasty" the other day, where she couldn't stop hundreds of pop-ups all over her screen! Luckily here partner is computer-literate and sorted the problem for her.

Best wishes,
Bye,
Penny.

GoJo,

was able to do crosswords today sans pop-ups! thanx for posting this site, as i will have fun with it.


penny,

you're a good influence, as i ordered a french-english/english-french dictionary from amazon today. (i misplaced mine a few years ago.) i don't think i have any use for the rhyme site, as i am not poetic, but i am sure it is great for some.

Hello Contralto,

Excellent. Remember, if you want any help with your French ask Cedric - just send him a p.m. or post him a message.

Best of luck,

Just off to work - it's 5.56 p.m., with howling very cold winds and rain - hope it doesn't turn to snow and ice as in other parts of the country!

Bye,
Penny.

Hi contralto:

You're welcome, great news about being popup free now.

Enjoy ...

hi GoJo and penny,

i find it hard to believe that only 3 people in this huge group enjoy crossword puzzles.

the weather is beautiful today in south georgia: chilly but sun shining brightly.

hope you are having great days and that today's crosswords aren't too tough.
