Sorry for the vagueness of this reply, but I hope it'll help you at least get somewhere with search engines or something.

There was something called PopUp Destroyer, or PopUp Killer - something like that. I learned about it from http://www.techtv.com if I recall - so you might search their site.

There's one here: http://www.analogx.com/contents/download/network.htm called POW. I tried it and deleted it. You have to train the thing and it was more of a pain to train it than to just kill the stupid windows. Most times you can kill them by just putting the address/ip of the host that sends the popups in your HOSTS file.

I used one that has several options, one being no popups. It is called the proximitron.
