I found a program on the web that's supposed to get rid of the
popups. Info for it is pasted below.  I HAVEN'T TRIED IT YET,
it's just been sitting on a disk for a couple months waiting
for me to get around to it (and remember about it).  :-)

I used to have a Geocities web site (well, technically I suppose
I still do) but got unhappy when they started those pop-ups.  
Besides, having one's own domain name (hosted elsewhere) was too 
cool  to pass up anyway.  :-)

Description         :
Do you hate it when web sites automatically open pop-up windows full of 
advertisements or other undesirable content when you arrive at or 
depart from 
a web site?  OnTrack! is a small program that works with your browser 
to filter out these browser commands, thereby preventing these extra 
windows from opening. OnTrack! runs automatically in the background, 
starting up when you start your web browser. Since OnTrack! only 
filters 
out commands for windows that are opened without user interaction, all 
other web page functionality remains intact while you browse.
