Somewhere along the line I've acquired Dealnews on my desktop. Now every
time I go to Netflix or Redbox, I get an annoying popup offering me a
non-valid coupons.
I can't find it in my program list.
I've cleaned Cache, cookies and history in Firefox 7.0.1. It doesn't appear
if I open the same sites in Chrome or IE.
I've run Decrapifier, CCleaner, Malwarebytes and I'm also using AVG, the
latest version.
I've also run Trend Micro Housecall.
Nothing.
Any ideas?

Is it listed in the Add-ons under Manage Add-ons? You may just need to
disable it.

It's a dangerous business, going out your door. You step onto the road,
and if you don't keep your feet, there's no knowing where you might be
swept off to.

Giving myself a dope slap! Thanks James, I get so used to them, I forget
they are there. I didn't find it listed, so I disabled all and am slowing
adding the ones I want back in, but that took care of it.

DISABLE ALL ADD-ONS. ADD-ONS ARE CRAP, NOBODY NEEDS THEM.

Wrong you are Jeff. Ad block is a wonderful add-on

I always use Pop Up Blocker, but that is not an add-on. You're right though,
if it is an add-on, it is the only beneficial one.

I have a couple I use, but only a couple. As for needs, well, nobody
really "needs" internet, but it sure does come in handy.
