First port of call mate would be to download:

Spybot S&D
Adaware

Update those programs and run them, theres a good chance some of you pop-up phlight might be a result of adware and other registry entries.

Then install the microsoft pop-up blocker, as they are pretty standard in what they do (block pop-ups). Be careful of some as the pop-up blockers themselves install adware and other junk.

One of the easiest to use (and free) would be google toolbar. http://toolbar.google.com

You could always use firefox which blocks popups when they could be malicious...
www.mozilla.com/firefox/

Also mate, if you have the messenger service on it can cause problems(not related to MSN)

go to Start>Run type "services.msc" find messenger and disable it.
