If you are running Windows XP then wait a few days until you get SP2:
"Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) Support Center "
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=fh;EN-US;windowsxpsp2
In SP2 the IE6.x browser comes with a popup blocker.
As you can see, it will also turn on the XP firewall. By the road... you
should always run a firewall and antivirus software!
