You posted in the 'Hardware' section, but this is a Windows-specific question, so I've moved your thread.

To answer your question, your popups are probably being generated by spyware. Please check out our security FAQ for info on how to remove it and avoid it in the future. Please post a followup and let us know how it goes.

I'm willing to bet just switching to Firefox would solve your problem, if you are not already using it. Get it here.

Do you have this program installed? It sounds as if you are running a trial version, and the program is popping up telling you to buy it!

If you are looking for a decent, free antivirus program, click my sig
