I haven't gotten a single one, and I have popups enabled. Do you by chance have any spyware on your computer?

Both of them were in the second chance number where you posted your number. I did a survey this am and then I got into the forum and boom boom right after another. I am on a work computer so security is pretty tight

Has anyone else seen any? The only things that they could come off of would be the banner ads at the top of the page (coupons.com, reunion.com, and the disney dvd). If anyone sees another pop up, let me know what banner is at the top.

I haven't either NOW that I cleaned my laptop. One day last week I had the same problem, and although I never could pinpont exactly what it was, something was downloaded on my pc. I had to run a cleaner to get it taken care of.

When I do my daily scans for Spyware, Coupons.com appears alot.

Coupons.com does install some things on your system if you download the printer. One of the complaints against it is that it is harder to uninstall than it should be. The other is that it prints your coupons.com id number on the coupons as part of the serial numbers.

Other than that, you should not see anything with it that either pops anything up or overwrites cookies or anything like that. Ideally, you could just print the coupons directly from the webpage rather than installing a printer. But that would make the coupons too easy to manipulate and you know how many people would be forging coupons. :(
