What's with the Portal Search Toolbar??

[avrilfan2002]

Lately, I have not been able to visit Avrilbandaids.com/main.php without having a Portal Search Toolbar forced down my throat.
I visited their website and they say that I am prompted to install it and I have the option to say no.
I've looked for that option about 10 times now and see nothing.

Anyway, if someone can tell me how to prevent this from downloading every single time I visit bandaids it would be appreciated.
I've had to uninstall about 20 times so far...so annoying.

Read the bottom of Static's first post - It's a pop-up added to generate money. I hope it's a major fund raiser, as it rates high on the annoying factor.

There is software you can use to block these type of advertising / tracking out there.

if more people click on the bottom banner box on the main page then we can get rid of the pop-up add, but so far not enough people are clickin it.

And it shouldn't download every time you open the page because you have to okay the download first before it will save to your computer.

^ whenever i go to the main page, my status bar just immediately starts saying it's downloading. There's no option.
I guess i'll just stop going to the main page lol. i'll get my news from here
