Install the google toolbar.
Install Windows Service Pack 2
(update.microsoft.com)
If you don't have anti-virus, get AVG as well as Spybot and AdAware, all from www.filehippo.com (free)

If you're talking about pop-up messages from websites, adware, or spyware, using a combination of SpyBot Search & Destroy and AdAware will eliminate the spyware. As far as the net goes, you can turn off pop-ups on most browsers by configuring their settings.
If, however, you're talking about pop-up spam messages from Windows Messenger, go to http://www.grc.com and download 'Shoot the Messenger'. It will disable this hideous creation and free you from any more pop-ups.

Install Spybot Search and Destroy. Install it, then look for updates, then immunize, then run a scan. It will clean up a lot of spyware.

go to www.download.com
search for adaware
download the free version
go back and search for spybot and download the free version
unconnect your computer from the internet and run first adaware and then spybot and your computer will be free of those malware on your computer
be sure to run both at least once a week.
