Do you have your browser's own popup blocker turned on?

Your daughter probably downloaded the new MSN Plus add-on and accidentally installed the adware software that comes with it if you choose to "support" the software.

I suggest downloading these programs and scanning your computer.

Spybot Search & Destroy. http://www.safer-networking.org/en/mirrors/index.html
Lavasoft Ad-Aware. http://www.lavasoft.com/products/ad_aware_free.php

Get Firefox too if you haven't got that browser already, and make sure you have the Adblock Plus add-on for that. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1865

Hope that helps!

On the Firefox toolbar, go to tools, options and click Block popup windows. :thumbs:
