Are you running Windows XP?
Microsoft has a program built into it that generates pop ups, even when not surfing. Seems like a lil bit of advertising to me.
If it is from XP, and you want to disable them, just let me know and I can set you up.

I posted this in the Comp forum.AVG Anti-Spyware 7.5 formerly known as Ewido Anti-Spyware 4.0.Use this along with Ad-Aware and use Firefox 2.0 as your browser and you'll never experience another pop-up again.Having a good anti-virus program like Avast only makes it better.Windows Firewall(yes,Windows Firewall)and a Router also helps.I experience no pop-ups whatsover...never.
And the great thing,it all costs nothing except your time to keep it upgraded.
