Should you be gettig pop-ups on that computer?
Hi, I'm having trouble understanding this sentence.
"Should you be gettig pop-ups on that computer?"
"No, not with my spam filter"
Maybe I haven't mastered the usage of the modal verb "Should". What does it mean in this? Would somebody please explain it to me? Thanks so much!
