How to Get Rid of Popunder.Paypopup

Internet marketers use popup advertisements to generate additional traffic to their websites. Two kinds of popups exist. The first is the basic popup -- you click a link, and a new window appears on your computer. The second kind is the pop-under. With a pop-under, when you click a link, a new window appears, but it appears beneath all of your other windows. You might not even notice it until you close down your browser. While some popups are harmless, others, such as the popunder.paypopup can be indicative of adware on your computer.
