You running WinXP? Get the SP2 update. Haven`t seen a pop up since I installed it.

Depends if you`ve changed the serial or it`s the old corporate one that begins with the old `FCK......`
Have you got SP1 on? If so you should be OK. Maybe.

try the new MS pop blocker. There is a free beta version on the web. I was using Spybot Search & Destroy and Adaware(both freeware) and still getting problems. Adaware now has an SE upgrade + MS, no pop ups since
