    Do you have your pop-ups blocked? I don't get those at all.

    You have SupraSavings downloaded on your computer! You will have to uninstall it! It is irritating beyond belief! It downloaded with another program you downloaded!

    Oh, my -- that's exactly what happened to me a couple of days ago. I couldn't figure out why pop-ups were happening (I use Google Chrome which automatically blocks popups). I went into my programs last night, and sure enough, there was SupraSavings, which I'm sure I did not download. Easily uninstalled it and everything is back to normal. Those popups are definitely irritating!

    You have to be vigilant when downloading anything! Read before you accept!! Learned the hard way! ������
