From time to time people get annoyed by popup messages. The first thing to check is whether these are going from your browser or not. Most it seems are due to people being 'targetted' through instant messaging, you might also start to get messages offering to sell you software to turn it off. So you might want check that instant messaging is switched off before trying to do anything drastic, or pay out money.
