pop up ads

[jjatcal]

I am getting many pop up ads. I have Norton Internet Security and Antivirus installed. For a while, all pop ups were blocked. I'm getting them again. How can I block?

Thanks.

Apologies everyone, My use of English spelling was appaling in the post.

No apologies needed, from my perspective.
Just making sure the poster was clear on where to go.

has a free one for IE that stops them in their tracks, and can be disabled easily if you need it (like with AOL)

I just use Opera, which stops them all, or opens them in the background, or....
