How do I stop these popups?

I ran Adaware on my computer. Then I ran a virus program that did a full scan. I set my browser to No-Popups. My son was using the computer to go to a kids site and a pop-up came up. Any advice? We are using xp home edition.

CurlyBen, No, I never heard of that stuff.
I had constant PORN pop ups coming from Internet explore the first time and the second time it was spam adverts. I made a list of all the domain names that were popping up and I complained to all the web hosts and the pop ups stopped within a few days.

But I am no expert.
