If Homer's idea doesn't work...

Try Webroot Spysweeper.  I ended up buying this one, although you get a free trial (one definition update).  After I ran Ad Aware and Spybot This came up with some ad and spyware I knew was there but couldn't get rid of before.

Try it here.

When you scanned your system did it turn anything up? If it did you need to select those files and press the fix button. After that be sure to Immunize your system using that feature.

Just for the hell of it do a google search and download CWShredder it's a program that might detect something as well. It is most commonly used to remove the CoolWebSearch toolbar which comes loaded with spyware.

Have you tried a spyware or adware sweeper?

Try Ad-Aware.  It's free and one of the best.

Can you give me an idea of what kind of popups they are? Are they popups that happen when you visit websites or are they windows messenger type popups?
