goto http://www.lavasoftusa.com/ and get ad-aware and get all that spy ware off your comp, then get a real pop up blocker like the google toolbar, most of the other ones are spyware

Use add aware in combination with Spybot to get everything. Make sure you update the definition files for both before running though. Most of those popup blocker are a joke and some of them actually contain spyware. I agree with the google toolbar. Anytime I'm at a computer that I don't have direct control over, I install the google toolbar and use it while surfing. Firefox is a good alternative on winblows systems. It's fast and contains a built-in popup blocker that is fairly configurable.

I also use spybot and adaware often. Always make sure you get the updates before you run it.
If you ran both of those and still have a problem with popups go here:
http://spywareinfo.com/
There is an abudance of information at this site regarding spyware and similar annoying crap.
I had it really bad on my PC once and had to run their "hijackthis.exe" program and then post up the log results in their forum where someone tells you how to fix your PC. I had to go in and change some registry items and remove some files and now it's fine. It's a great website with a lot of information.

Ad-Aware is a very good program. I would say use that every day (especially if you have an always-on connection, like me). You can schedule for times it can scan and everything, so at 9 A.M. while you're at work or whatnot, it could be searching and deleting crap off your pc. Also, if you don't like IE, download Mozilla Firefox, its great and comes with pop-up blocker, along with a range of other things. (And it's free, too!)
