If your using Firefox your in luck, if your not, then why not?
Theres an Add-On You can get, it's called Ad-Block Plus. Install that, and all you have to do is right click on a ad, and click BLOCK. If the advert is cleaver, you may not be, so then just click the big red ABP icon and look at the list of items, go through it, and find which ad's you need to block.
Hope I helped
If your NOT using firefox, start using it!!!
Its SAFER, FASTER AND MORE SECURE.
It also has awesome add ons like this.

Okay...sounds like you got some type of virus/adware...and no, those programs don't work. Trust me, I've tried it...depending if you are a computer buff or not...or if you know someone who can do it for you...you will need to completely reformat
(which means completely delete everything) on your hard drive and reinstall all your programs and Windows. And then first of all before, you log on to the internet, you need to make sure your internet security programs is fully installed and running before you even attempt to log on to the internet. There really is no easy way around it. As of how you even contracted the porn popups...well, usually if anyone has ever clicked on any such website...it can infect that way.
Hope it helps you.
