Is it a legitimate copy of windows? If it is you could try microsofts safety centre safety.live.com/site/en-gb/default.htmIf not try spybot search and destroy www.safer-networking.org/en/home/index.htmlAnd lavasoft's free personal version www.lavasoftusa.com/index.phpI suspect you are going to have trouble downloading anything though, they usually try to block you from downloading and running spyware and adaware removal programs. It could of course just be pop ups from sites you've opened. If it is googles or yahoos search bar has a pop up blocker built in if you download one of those.
