Install google toolbar or yahoo toolbar. They have built in pop up blocking for IE. Also do the usual to get rid of spyware.

Answer 4

Here's a suggestion you probably haven't thought of - stick with Firefox... on the pages you need IE, use IE in a tab.

IETab (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1419) It uses the "rendering engine" of IE without having to load IE up completely / open another window.

This also should stop the pop-ups.

Answer 5

download a newer version of internet explorer. They have a "popup blocker" that will block all those annoying popups. You can also see if you already have a popup blocker. Go to Tools->Internet Options...->Privacy. There you can set the popup blocker (sometimes you want popups, in that case, you can hold the ctrl button down and it will allow popups)

Answer 6

Turn on your pop up blocker.. If you are running the most recent IE it is under the tools section. this should take care of the problem.

Answer 7

press the red X button in the corner
