Mine are the ones that pop up asking you if you want to download software from a certain company. When you say no, they say, "You must press yes to continue", when you say no again, it goes to the download window, you know, do you want to save, open or cancel, and then when you press cancel, it says, "You must press yes to continue!"

BLOODY INFURIATING!!!!!!!!!!

i hate the one that dosn't have an x in the top left corner and only has an ok button. If you press ok it takes you up this screen saver site and the only way you can get out is by using ctrl=alt=del

I hate the 'You are the so and so person to visit this site! You have won a $1000 holiday! Click here!' pop ups. Its infuriating, and plus $1000 won't cover a holiday to Figi from Australia anyways.

All pop-ups are annoying...even my pop-up blocker is annoying, since it sends this really high-pitched noise through my speakers when it catches one.

Although I think the most annoying one I've ever gotten was a one selling free razor blades...It was a little bit disturbing.

I hated the popups that tried to sell me pop-up blocker software.

I also hated the popups that would pop up through IE even though I use Firefox.

That's what came into my mind as well. But yes, the "install our spyware!" pop up is annoying, but at least they give you the option. :erm:

What the hell's a pop-up? :D

Good ol' pop-up blocker~

Back in the day when I was a computer/internet n00b, I hated those pop-ups that didn't have a close button.

"You must press yes to continue!"

Those pop-ups are especially infuriating, although they're all perfectly evil.

Yeah. Embrace the <a href=http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox>light.</a>

Pop-up blockers don't always work though, except for the Mozilla one. The crappy Optimum Online free one I got worked great for a few months, but then something always got downloaded into the computer, and it'd cancel out of pop-up blocker and then I'd get a virus 2 days later. :(

The pop ups that you get that never let you go are the worst.

I don't get much pop-ups anymore though since I went from IE to Netscape.

I hate those pop ups that pop up when you're playing a game or something and not even browsing the internet and it quits the game just to tell you to click here for free xxx so I click there and it doesn't even take me to free xxx :(

i hate popups! every 10 minutes i get 6 popups all at the same time! im sure there is somthin wrong with my comp but im to lazy to fix it... and my internet is super slow so it takes forever to close them all. and half of them i press the X botton but it just makes a noise and wont close. the only way to get rid of them ist to use ctr+alt+del. I hate all popups!!

The only thing worse than getting popups is having to use Firefox. :)

I get lots of porn ones. *shudder*
The most annoying one is some hussy with scarily saggy boobs offering me the chance to get off on 'gangbangs, lesbians and steamy asians.'

No thank you.

Another amusing one I get is some purple nekkid chick saying 'Do you want to date me? If not, I'll find out where you live and stick my bum in your butterdish.'

So far no bumprints in the butter.

I always had an IQ test pop-up thing... but it went bye-bye along with every other one when I set up a pop-up blocker. :upsidedow
