    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 does not allow the posting of unsolicited HiJack logs. However, that same policy contains links to several other sites that still provide that service.
