New Browser Window Popup When Using Browser Back Button

Briefly, my problem is related to the pop-up phenomenon, but my popup is a new browser window that pops up typically when I am using the back button in IE6, but also happens when I leave a webpage by visiting a link in that page. Seems to happen a lot when I am at yahoo.com and cnn.com. I don't want to install any anti-ad software, but would rather fix this myself, manually, even if it means diving into the registry. I am very computer literate, but this popup stuff has got me stumped. Anyone out there that can give me any pointers on preventing these popups?
