stutorSomeone in another thread recommended "pop-up stopper" as a possible solution to these annoying pop-ups. I downloaded the software (free of charge) and haven't had a single pop-up since. The only downfall is that some links are designed to open in another window and this software prevents the link from opening the window. This problem is solved by simply holding down the control key while clicking the link. I've found that it's a great trade-off.
