Pop-ups come from several things.
Install the prevention protection below and help your
friends from being infected on the Internet.
"An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure."
Install the prevention protection on ALL User Account IDs.
Empty the Recycle Bin frequently.
Run Disk CleanUp! as the Temp folders should be cleaned
out periodically as installation programs and hijack
programs leave a lot of junk there.
Then reboot to let it clean out what it found.
By the way, in order to improve Internet Explorer (IE)
performance the Temporary(TIF)should be cleaned out
periodically.

Also, it is a good idea to limit the size of the TIF to
100MB for performance sake.
In IE go to Tools then Internet Options then Settings and
move the slider down to 100MB.
Download and install WinPatrol.

Install IE-SPYAD then run the install.bat in the ie-spyad

You should install ALL Windows Critical Updates to help
from being continually infected.
In Internet Explorer go to Tools then Windows Updates and
install each patch one by one rebooting when necessary.
Good luck
