windows pop up. how do i stop them. i have nortons virus
and firewall, do i need something else or are my settings
wrong?

message or is it an advertisement (popup) pleae help!!

Install Ad-Aware from Lavasoft Software, keep it updated. Also install
Google toolbar with popup blocker.

Get this wickedly good free tool that stops all popups, except the ones you
initiate (like when a clickable link is coded to create a new window).
Wonderfully compact, it is just a new .dll helper object for IE. No list of
advertisers to be updated is required. (I'm not a shill, just a satisfied
user.)

And the advise about using Ad-aware and Spybot-Search&Destroy is also good.
You should use those anyway.
