Did you install SP2?

Firewall on?
Automatic updates on?
BB with modem or router or dial-up?

Where are the popups appearing?

Where are the popups appearing? Pop ups are appearing whenever the computer is on regardless of whether Internet Explorer is open or not. Appear in the middle of the screen and can either say as in first post or something along the lines of ...we have details of all adult sites you have visited, your credit card details may be at risk, download this to fix etc etc. Always wants me to download something from win32??
