Popup messages in Internet Explorer V6 SP1

[Harry]

Can someone let me know how I could stop the popup
advertisements that shows up while using internet
explorer. I use Windows XP as the operating system.

Thanks

If the popups are coming from the websites, use a popup stopper

If the popups are coming from your computer, you have adware. Use one of the
following scanner to remove it.

SpyBot S&D searches your harddisk for so-called spy- or adbots;
