    Hi I attached a screen shot of my laptop which points out a pop up in the corner of my screen. Now every time I get online and go to any site something similar to this pops up in the corner. There not all about at&t, some advertise jobs or you get that annoying congratulations you've won something junk. Anyway I just want to know how to get rid of them. So can anyone help me out or tell me how I got them in the first place thanks.

    Have you enabled the Internet Explorer popup blocker? If not, go to Tools > Internet Options and click
    the Privacy tab at the top of the window. Place a check mark in the box next to turn on popup blocker.
    Click Apply and OK. If you are still experiencing popup ads you probably have spyware/adware on your
    computer. For malware removal assistance see the link below......
