If you want to stop getting pop ups, you can do the following. 1) activate your xp-integrated firewall (and manually block ports), 2) get the tool "Popupstopper Pro" which you can manually activate and deacitvate in your internet browser -> really efficient tool, or 3) download an alternative internet browser such as "Opera" or "Mozilla". I'm not quite sure about Mozilla, but I know that Opera has an integrated "refuse pop ups" function. -> all you need to do then, is define this internet browser as your default browser... Good luck!
