I've always received pop-ups when I first access simviation, however lately they are becoming more pervasive and taking over my browser.  Any ideas?

Nope I sweep my computer frequently and it only happens with simviation.  I have pop-up blocking turned on, but some of the ad pages just won't let you click out of them.

I suspect that Pete is correct. Possibly spyware. Spybot should find it.

I've never had a single pop-up while using Simviation. One pop-under is all I get.
