Re: While they're at it.....

Here is a website with a free program that stops popups in their tracks. www.panicware.com
I've been using it for a couple of weeks now and it does the trick.
Don't stop with killing popups though, stop all of those tracking networks too.
IDCIDE makes an exceptional IE plugin that stops ALL tracking (including DSLReports with its doubleclick tracker).

If people serious about protecting their privacy on the internet, they have to take some of the responsibility themselves and read the privacy statements on websites. If they don't agree with how their info will be used, don't supply them with any. I have always had multiple email addresses, ones I use to give to legit contacts and one I use on websites. It may be "inconvenient" at times but I can always abandon my "web" accounts when the spam gets to be too overwhelming.
