ahodes1 Posted January 25, 2002 Share Posted January 25, 2002 If I type www.gateway. in my address bar, IE closes immediately. I don't press enter I can't even finish the address. It happens even when my internet connection is disconnected. It really is freaking me out :s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahodes1 Posted January 25, 2002 Author Share Posted January 25, 2002 Never mind... I found out why but this is rather interesting. Activate the pop-up blocker in TweakXP and try entering "www.gateway" in the address bar without the quotes. As soon as you press the period key, watch the window disappear... guess TweakXP found Gateway to be evil :evil: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[saint lucifer] Posted January 25, 2002 Share Posted January 25, 2002 That is hilarious! I guess they think Gateway is spam (and it is). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Gates Posted January 25, 2002 Share Posted January 25, 2002 why does gateway try to make weak computers look like a good thing? look at some of them and read what "great deals" they are. i could build a computer stronger than most of those for 700 bucks.
