Make damn sure you have a firewall running.

Download & install the google explorer toolbar. It contains
a popup blocker that can be configered to block all,
default, or allow certain popup's.
I use McAfee online virus scanner which uses popup's as
part of the update function. I alloes the updates but blocks
any others.
