You probably have a spyware infection. Run a scan for it. Check the add/remove programs under control panel, you may find some unwanted software. When you get cleaned up download the google toolbar, it has a good popup blocker.

p.s. if u already have that you can download the yahoo toolbar and if you see the little window with a badge lookin thing on it thats ur pop up blocker. you can click on that to enable and disable it.
good luck again

Install Yahoo Tolbar or Google Toolbar, download some anti-spyware software also

Do you have firefox to protect your from spyware ?
Have you used spybot and superantispyware to get rid of the nasties?
Have you done an online virus scan ?
