I use mcafee livesafe, on laptop and phones, i don't get those pop ups or ads.
Although you have inspired me to convey a story of what happened when I last found my self looking for that fuckin "X " on the edge of a box.
PART ONE
Some years ago a mate of mine sent me an email with the headline something like "cctv footage of the Gerrard fight in the bar", the fucker then sent me a text saying "i cant open it, what was it like".
Well curiosity got the better of me so I opened it on my lap top in the dining room while my wife was in the kitchen preparing my tea.
I can only say that from what I remember when this box opened (about the quarter size of the screen) at first i burst out laughing,picture this.
It was a video of two gay guys, one is sitting on a chair (dining chair from recollection, probably from oak furniture world, I had that long to study it

) with the other guy sat on his lap cowboy style, while he was jumping up and down on his mates todger his balls would swing round in a circle
At the top of the box was a counter with the headline "GAY COUNTER ", so every time the guys balls did a circle the counter went up one.
I watched about 3 rotations just out of a perverted curiosity, I then thought I'd seen enough, it wasn't really doing anything for me although I admired their enthusiasm
So I tried to click the X, ok so the box moves and I missed it, thought it was my error so tried again and again and a-fuckin-gain, anyhow by now the counter is in the twenties
Well the missus has obviously seen some frantic mouse movement and decides to wander over and have a look, I got in first with "its not what you think baby, slim sent this link as a joke the idiot", she takes a look at it and says "oh my god", then giggles a little nervously and gives me a bit of a sideways glance.
Noticing this i retort "seriously i don't watch this shit", so she has another look and cottons on to the balls swinging and the counter, "well if thats true why is the counter now on 34?!!!"
Anyhow I show her that I'm trying to click the "X", just to try and salvage what dignity i had left
So eventually I think ctl alt del, hey presto I shut it down.
