Start with a pop up blocker. Firefox and IE (browsers) have built in ones to stop these ads for popping. You can see if they are running on the tools menu usually. Make sure that the site has not been aollowed in the popup list.
I also suggest you run a spyware removal program in safe mode. First buy or download a spyware program. Webroot has a great one to purchase and adaware by Lavasoft is a great free one. Both should get the job done, though many believe in using 2 different products.
Once installed reboot your machine and right before the Boot logo shows for the OS hit F8 and choose safe mode with networking or just safe mode. Networking would be good if the programs needs to pull updates. Either way run the spyware removal program and remove the junk.

installation use and replace a) virus scanning b) a firewall and c) Anti-undercover agent ware application on your workstation. receive, installation and use Firefox (you may google seek for Firefox). Firefox has popup blockading outfitted in, yet in addition discover out the thank you to place in addins and installation the Adblock Plus icon. final analysis: you have blundered heedlessly into the internet quagmire of the information superhighway. Now you're caught and you basically have your self in charge. do no longer attempt to take care of your self with lack of information. do slightly analyze and discover out what you're doing till now you mess each and every thing up. Oh expensive, too late.

If you cant find the source of those pop ups then just reformat your system and reinstall windows and drivers. Some times when you download a tool bar, free software you get more than you bargained for.

ıf you are getting sudden pop-ups; the reason may be the "messenger service" whicj has nothing to do with the normal MSN messeneger. here is the steps you should follow
1. click "start" and then click "run
2. type: services.msc and hit enter
3. when the services window opens , look for the "messenger" service
4. if it is active, you should deactivate it. because many popups are in your computer thanks to that service
