Is there a way to get the info on a popup and report it to (whoever) so that it can be blocked. I'm starting to get popups on one site only and my Spyblaster, Ad-aware and Spybot are not taking care of them.

Clear your cookies. Update Spywareblaster and Ad-aware and scan in safe mode.

If it's just a plain advertising popup, use one of the popup blockers here:

If you suspect you have a trojan or other malware, post a Hijack This! log in the adware, spyware & hijack cleaning thread.

Actually, the new Wilders policy (http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=42148) does not allow the posting of unsolicited HiJack logs. However, that same policy contains links to several other sites that still provide that service.
