No, I don't have any issues with pop ups.  The computer does seem slow to start up though as it takes a few minutes to go through the various set up.  I have run a variety of anti-virus and spyware programs and don't seem to come up with anything significant.

Need help.  Download speed is fine 1.3m, upload non existent 7kbps.  Suppose to get speeds of 1.5m and 384kbps.  Laptop works fine (when hooked up to same connection) Desktop does not.  Is there a setting or virus that is causing my problem?

SBC has been out and repaired outside line, rebuilt port, ripped modems and installed a direct DSL line.  Same issue still exists.

Thanks for any insights.
