it is most likely spyware your anti-virus does not protect against that
I just posted this answer but it applies here
That is Definitely spyware/maleware Do NOT Download the spyware Program that it is telling you to download. Download a reputable program from an independent source
Free programshttp://find.pcworld.com/42052
http://www.lavasoft.com/
Ad-Aware @ Lavasoft - The Original Anti-Spyware Company
http://www.download.com/3000-2144-101221...
Spybot - Search & Destroy - Free Software Downloads and Software
also a tool that will run actively in the background to prevent further infections is Spyware Blaster it is free and protects both Internet Explorer and Firefox Browsers
http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareb...
SpywareBlaster
if you are going the free route I would suggest you run all three
as the programs are fair but not great.
If you want to get a retail antispyware program I personally recommend Spyware Doctor but Pest control and spysweeper are all good products. they all cost about $30
Either way get a product and scan your system and try to rmove the problem apps if it can't remove them restart computer in safe mode and re-run the scan and removal this usually works
PS make sure you update any spyware removal programs before scanning

Download Mozilla Firefox and use that instead, it works much better than Internet Explorer.
Download it here: www.mozilla.com

first of all, i don't even know what heck you talking about because your speech has like only one sentense; no pause whatsoever. it took me like 5 minutes to understand what you were saying. just install some popup blockers; most of them are free, for example, yahoo toolbar also offers popup, you just need to turn it on, that should solve the problem.

chek that your popup blocker is on there maybe more than one if you have tool bars each one usually has one on it
