An all-around good website, other users are saying that there is pop-ups but I don't see any, maybe it's just me. Just install Adblock+.

very annoying pop-up. which is disappointing - because the information looked good. You would think with the kind of information I was looking for (about security) the site would be more respectful of my computer.

The popup, which can be easily dismissed, is for a free newsletter enjoyed by over 40,000 subscribers since 2005. There is no security risk.
Annoying pop ups !

Nothing suspicious on AskBobRankin.com. The popup is for a free newsletter, and shows only once when visiting the site.

Pop ups to very malicious sites. Also advertisements to some doubtful sites as viewed by WOT.

AskBobRankin.com has been a site trusted by many tens of thousands of people since 2005. I've been helping people understand and safely use the Internet since 1994.
This website pops up a dialog box that asks you to subscribe to the AskBob Updates. There is no way to close this dialog box. It sits there blocking the web page. I don't trust people who demand I sign up to their newsletters and won't let me close the box.

Not true. The popup box has a little "X" in the corner and can be closed easily. AskBobRankin.com is 100% safe.
