Re: Pop ups going to adgardener.com

[Bob Crothers <bob.crothers@xxxxxxxxx>]

Since firefox is hosed, you might try a different browser.  Of course there
is the evil MSIE which is already on your machine.  If you are still blocked
from the good sites, try Google Chrome.  It doesnt allow add in's at all so
might still work.  http://www.google.com/chrome
I really like Chrome and use it as my primary with Firefox for stuff that
wants plugins or a specific browser.
