say no (firmly) turn your back and if he continues take him to another room, leave him in there alone for a minute or so, let him back in then if he does it again just keep repeating. That way he is getting the complete opposite to what he wants - he'll soon learn that humping gets him alone in another room with no company at all and he wont like that.
Remember to praise when he doesn't do it.
It can take a few attempts to see a change sometimes but i can promise you it works.
Or if your dog is particularily aggressive when trying to hump i suggest the snip or hormone injections.
Good luck i know how difficult it can be and its not very pleasant.
Dont worry though lots of people have this problem with thier dogs - your not alone.

well, our dog humped a good bit and then we got him "fixed".
this helped a good bit.
he still humps sometimes, but we learned from dog books that this is also a way of showing dominance.
just push him off and "ehhh" him. "ehh" is a noise we make to tell our dog "no". we learned this from our dog trainer. she showed us that "no" is kind of flat, so if we say something like "ehh" it's more high pitched and louder and more attention getting. he has been responding to it really well!
also, when you push him off whatever he's humping give him something else to do, so, he won't want to go back to the humping.
take care and good luck!
check out some dog books for training help and perhaps PetSmart (that's where we're doing our puppy training!).

If your dog is already neutered, humping is a sign of dominance. This should be curbed or your dog will try to dominate you. Next time he does it, grab him and turn him on his back and hold him there until he relaxes. Do this every time that the does it.

The best thing to do is to have your dog neutered. Without the testosterone levels and need for hormones, your dog with have little to no sexual urges. This will also calm him down and reduce aggression.

Have him neutered, keep him on a leash and correct him every time he tries it.

You should have him neutured, the male hormones can make guys, (human and animal) very horny. that's why most guys are more excited about sex and stuff than girls are.
