    | Something on my computer is poping adds up even if I have my browser closed.

    If these are NetBIOS Pop-Up messages then get a cable/DSL Router such as the Linksys
    BEFSR41. It will act like a simplistic FireWall and block the network messages that create
    those pop-ups. There are many advantages as well. For example, if you are on DSL that uses
    PPPoE as the connector then the Router will make the PPPoE connnection, not the PC. And
    additional benefit is sharing the one WAN address with upto 253 LAN nodes.
