Get GOOGLE chrome, then install their "ADblock" it literally blocks ads, and when an ad does pop up, it blocks it out and you see all white and you can close it

You can download ANY BROWSER WITH 10 AD BLOCKING EXTENSIONS and it won't do anything against ads that are being introduced into your computer by malware. What each extension will do is slow the browser down as each one of them consume resources, and with each extension you install INCREASE the likelihood of an exploit. If your experiencing HUGE amounts of ad's and pop-ups, that would suggest you have malware, and malware is most likely installed on your computer by being "bundled" into a program you thought you wanted or needed. If its malware that's the root cause- Uninstall every program (browser extensions, toolbars included) you don't want, need, or wish would die. Research those your unsure of. Download Malwarebytes (MBAM): http://general-changelog-team.fr/en/tutorials/44-english/tutorials/software/313-how-to-use-adwcleaner-version-3-x If you REALLY WANT to stop ad's research Hostsman, its a Hosts file manager that is currently blocking over 460,000 sites and 95% of all ad's on my PC.
