popup 

An Internet phrase for "pop-up window". The annoying windows that open up randomly when you access a webpage. Most popups can be closed with a simple click of the mouse, but some, such as pornography popups, are programmed to open up more popup windows or pull the user into a pop-up loop, or even disable the user's computer.
There are a wide variety of free and commercial software programs available which can block popups. The range of effectiveness varies with each program.

Now it's nearly impossible to surf the Net for ten minutes without encountering a site with at least one porn popup.

The ultimate evil

When I went to the website lo and behold I got a popup ad.

popup 

An internet advertisement that comes in a separate window without warning and without your consent. Some look like the operating system's buttons and asks if you want to scan for popups, which tempts less smarter people to click them which will run an ActiveX control which will install more popups.

A popup ad is like a vacuum cleaner salesman that comes to your door at 1:30 in the morning and dumps ashes on your carpet, then won't pick it up until you buy their vacuum cleaner and pick it up yourself. Meanwhile, the vacuum cleaner is loaded with viruses in the bag and you get sick.

Popup 

Anoying windows that appear either when a webpage is loading or out of nowhere.

Popups really annoy the entire world.

To put it simply, Satan's Asshole.

The leader of hell created the popup in order to make the walkers of earth squirm at the sight of his evil ability to annoy the living hell out of us.

The asshole who invented them is now trying to patent embedded audio ads that you can't turn off.

AAAAARGH!!! I set up two popup blockers and STILL I can't surf the Goddamn web without encountering pages with popups that can't be closed. I'm gonna fucking kill the guy who invented these damn popups.
