There’s only one pop-up that I cannot close without it actually opening. It’s got “zedo” in the title. Has this company devised a fool-proof code to insure the ad actully opens?
How are you trying to close it? Just because a corner has an ‘x’ or says close doesn’t mean that it is programed to close if you click it.
Before it’s actually open I “right click” it closed on the bar across the bottom of the screen. Every other pop up disappears right then. Not this one, though. It opens and then I have to “x” it closed.
I have another one, but it is a pop-behind.
It’s from this site, which I just linked to a news article on. Click around a bit if you don’t get the pop-behind. You should.
May be a virus, or an ad trying to download one. If you do a search on “zedo ad virus” you’ll get some hits.
