    When I right click on the back arrow and cannot get a backup from a website I'm on, I often see a long list of websites like this.

    r1-ads.ace.advertising.com -

    I assumed it has something to do with spyware or the like. I do have security essentials and have seen this but never did anything about it. If I can't backup, I just go to another link. Is there anything to prevent this?

    Since pop-up ads are on their own little webpage, you may also be seeing them in your backup list.

    Even if I'm using pop-up blocker and not seeing any pop up ads?

    I just set the pop up blocker settings to high to block all ads.

    I wonder if blocking third party cookies would help any?

    I'm using a laptop from a router on the desktop in another bedroom.
