Yeah that same thing happened to me, but my computer was running slow anyways so I just formatted my computer and re-installed windows. That probably doesn't help, but I thought I would share anyways.

you've got spyware on your machine. download Lavasoft adaware and run it. That should fix the problem.

adaware from lavasoft is what we use at work and it was great to have some control over what my browser was doing after it got cleaned up

Definitely sounds like spyware especially if you are getting these pop-up windows without IE/netscape or any other browser open.
I used spybot, but they all basically work the same, clean up your registry. Make sure you save all your old stuff in case you want to restore it. Friends have had problems where spybot or adaware would delete ---- from their registry and then they couldn't shut down properly for instance. :-X
