Spybot
www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html

Adaware

It's more than likley a peice of malware if it's producing popup's

I personaly use firefox as this seems to stop alot of things which can cause software like this to get onto your PC.

Umm, It could be spyware, download Spybot Search and Destroy at (www.safer-networking.org/en/mirrors/index.html)

Click one of the download places to download it.

Install and run this, it'll search for adware/ spyware.

Try that.
