Same here, but if you don't want to switch browsers there should be a
pop-up blocker for IE. Haven't used IE for a long time now.

Pop up blocker is turned on. I used the wrong term for the message. They are
hover help type of popups with marketing info to upgrade AVG. It isn't
happening on my laptop so I need to do some searching of some settings...

If your speaking of the one at the bottom of the AVG Security components
page, I think that is going to be there forever if you don't "Download Now,
to Enhance your Protection". There is a tab to "Hide notification", just
use that if this is what your talking about. You know when something is
free, you really have no complaints over a small dropdown.
