For the past week or so, whenever I try to play a game that uses a pop-up window, I have a pop-up from "Google" that continually says that I have excessive pop-ups and to contact a 1-888 number immediately. I haven't done so but it is getting quite frustrating. How do I get rid of this? This is the only site that it happens on. I have gone into my tools and checked my pop-up setting, changed it then changed it back. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated! Thank you for your time!
