AdBlock Plus which is a free extension you can install into Google Chrome Browser, or Firefox.

Also probably want to scan your computer with an adware/malware cleaning program like MalwareBytes...get rid of some bad toolbars and browser BHO's you've likely picked up along the way.

I'm sorry but that's how the site makes money is with pop ups. If you don't want the pop ups,pony up the $25 to be a club member no more pop ups. I think you will get your $25 a year membership fee back in information in days.

Your right, could you put up the $25 a year for me? Adblocker is a free add on. And as for info, I do give as much as I get.

You can disable the underlined words. If I remember correctly right click the
underlined words then look for the disable instructions.

They will come back. After a specific amount of time for the cookie they give you to time out, the underlined words show back up. There is an easier way to handle this is though. All you need to do is block *.kontera.com from at your router. If your router does not support site blocking, you could always block it from inside the browser you use... it's easy to do with both Firefox and Chrome.

The third option, a little more clunky to work with, use NoScript together with Adblock Plus. Ultimately if you can... block *.kontera.com.

I am using google chrome. My pop up issue started again two days ago. I am using adblocker plus. How do I block kontera.com through my browser??? You say it is easy, but I am a computer moron. It ain't easy for me without some advice. LOL
