  1. Use pop-up blockers: Most web browsers today have built-in pop-up blockers that can prevent pop-ups from appearing automatically. Make sure that pop-up blockers are turned on to avoid pop-ups.

  2. Install anti-virus/malware software: Pop-ups may be caused by a malicious software program on your computer. Installing antivirus or anti-malware software can help identify and remove harmful software.

  3. Disable add-ons/extensions: Third-party browser extensions may lead to the appearance of pop-ups. Disable any extensions or add-ons that you don't use or don't know the source to avoid pop-ups.

  4. Keep software updated: Make sure that your operating system and web browser are up-to-date. Software updates often include security features that can protect against pop-ups.

  5. Be cautious when clicking on links: Pop-ups are often triggered by clicking on links within emails or on websites. Be cautious when clicking on links, especially from unknown or suspicious sources.

  6. Use a trusted ad-blocker: Using an ad-blocker program can effectively block pop-ups, as well as other types of ads.

  7. Enable pop-up blocking on mobile devices: Pop-up blockers are also built into mobile devices. Make sure that you have enabled pop-up blocking in your mobile device's settings to avoid pop-ups.
