Why do I keep getting pop-ups?

It seems that everywhere I go, a pop-up window suddenly appears every single minute. My pop-up blocker is on, I blocked a few sites, I haven't found any spyware (I ran an anti-spy scan today), and there had been no viruses so far (Did a virus scan this morning, and I'm still not done). What is wrong with my computer?

P.S. I was using AT&T Yahoo! Browser, and the pop-ups came from Internet Explorer.

WINDOWS XP Recovery Desktop Folders /DOS/LINUX way?

LapTop: F8 gets me into a Screen where "Safe Mode", "Last Good Configuration .." choices are present, but when clicked, I get a blanc screen.
Windows Logo appears, then the message: "Windows is preparing to start...."
Then again a I get a blanc screen.
I did hook up this HD to another PC and I can access most of it except for Desktop\Documents and Settings\Folders... (Access Denied) - because I've set a User Password when Loging in Windows XP. Is there anyway around that?

Is there any software to be Installed on the second computer and Check, Recover, Fix Registry on my Laptop (hooked up HD)?

I have made a bootable CD and Downloaded Knoppix.Iso on it, then I get the image of my Desktop in Linux, but just in a Read-only mode.
How do I copy those Folders from the HD\Desktop\Documents and Settings?
