Pop ups are sign that your PC is infected with spyware.
Try these free scans to find and remove the spyware.
I like ewido the best.

A pop up blocker will not help until your PC is clean.After it is clean, then install yahoo toolbar @ toolbar.yahoo.com
Google also has a free pop up blocker
For a free virus protector go to grisoft.com

YOu can change your browser.
The best browser is the one you can download on www.getfirefox.com
It is an easy download and the browser is called Mozilla Firefox.Freely google it.It has a very good pop up blocker and it keeps viruses away and gone forever!
Hope I Helped!

I like Pop Up Blocker Pro and Spyware Detector.
http://downloads.zdnet.com/Pop-Up-Blocker-Pro-and-Spyware-Det...3000-7786_2-10290737.html
And also the one that is provided with the new yahoo anti-spy toolbar.
