I have now installed a separate firewall,which looks like it might be more trouble than the pop-ups,at least untill I sort out the settings.Have just received, someone wants to send a ICMP packet to my machine, and another one a UDP whatever that is. Does anyone know what they are please. I thought everything would be blocked automatically.

BLUESKYTHINKER. Just athought, I uninstalled Norton anti-virus as it was causing so much trouble,as have quite a few friends, it seems ok with other ISP's but not AOL. No trouble with that since installing AVG.

Now have what I should have done first, printed off the twelve pages of how to use the firewall, which explains all the above terms,and no I still don't get it. I must be thick.
