Has anyone been trapped into "porn videos" while browsing porn sites for good sexy heel shots? The only way that I found to escape it is to hit my computer's main power switch. This is a real aggrivation and takes up a lot of viewing time because I then must restart the computer. Any tips on escaping without having to hit the power switch?

Ah, thank you for the quick response. I always click the X in the top right corner. This"porn videos" will not disappear as all of the others do. It comes up with a question that is a loop. I haven't tried the alt f, press x yet.

CTRL ALT DEL and go to Task Manager and shut off the web browser Process that you use.

Oh I'm sorry I i think I may have misunderstood your question. You mean like random pop ups? That could be just spyware so you might want to use a program like avast, or avg free, or malwarebytes to do a scan on your computer. also if you use mozilla firefox there are addons such as noscript, and adblock plus that will prevent popups also in both IE and Firefox there is a option to block pop-ups in the preferences. Hope this helps!

My face is red. "porn videos" displays a a question: either cancel, or continue. All of this time, I misunderstood the question. I certainly did not want to continue with "porn videos", so I never clicked on it. However, they meant to continue with the red X cancel. I tried the "continue" and it clicked right off. Thank all of you in trying to help. I really appreciate it. Apparently, I am beyond help. I apolijize for essentially calling wolf.

LOL No you're fine. You're not alone in this. I recommend using firefox as it has a lot of good security features that help prevent popups, or if you want a good website to go to I recommend http://www.tube8.com.

Use Firefox with noscript and adblocker plugins

Well, thank you. I will give each of your suggestions a try. I ran into another pop-up that captured my entire computer- had to pull the plug.
