computer help with this one pop up

[jdog]

this one pop up comes up probably 15 times a day. and i was wondering if someone could help me out, i dont know it there is something wrong with my computer or what. the pop up reads: your computer is currently broadcasting an internet ip address. with this address someone can begin attacking your computer!

i hope someone can help me out

I get that. I just close it. Someone here should be able to give ya the pop-up blocker. I forget the web address J-dog.

i also get one that says 'public manager' or something like that.
i hope someone tells us how to block it.

JDog-
This wont stop the pop ups, but will get rid of the spyware, and stop some of the popups that are triggered from spyware. Download ad-aware 6.0, its free. Lavasoft

JDog-
I use the presets, and just keep clicking "next" on the bottom right. After its done, you will need to click on the box next to the file names that it has found, then click next-it will then remove these items from your hard drive, and you can close out of it.

Have to open it up,

Install it,

then open the preferences box and click on the "suppress all pop-ads" box.
