Unlike typical pop-ups (stopped with available blockers) 3rd party cookies are entirely different critters. When PC's (personal confusers) misbehave, like pop-up's, going to unrequested sites, goofy warnings, etc.; one step to help reduce annoying pop-ups & un-requested websites from being displayed on your machine is to
TURN OFF 3rd PARTY COOKIES.
INTERNET EXPLORER: Tools> Internet Options> Privacy> Advanced: here check 'Override automatic....'; 'Allow session cookies'; 'Allow 1st party cookies'; & 'Block 3rd Party Cookies'.
FIREFOX: Tools> Options> Privacy: here UN-CHECK 'Accept 3rd Party cookies'
(OPERA, et al: not sure, check under 'options' for this).
Then, you'll have to ERADICATE MALWARE with Spybot, Ad Aware, and all available trusted cleaners & Anti-virus software, and suggested
TOOLS FOR SPECIFIC INFECTIONS listed from other posts in this forum.
Note: some current 'rouge' malware will undo this change, so you might have to redo this step after malware has been eliminated.
Have nearly ad-free pages when surfing; use Firefox with these add-ons:
NoScript: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/722
Flashblock: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/433
Add block plus: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1865
Tell your friends to do these steps BEFORE they get infected. Some of the current malware originates as a pop-up, but when you click the 'X' or 'cancel'
(thinking to close the window) it does the opposite & installs the malware.

Plus many spyware removing/protection courses at the instant can't maintain up with each of the recent ones. try working distinctive anti-spyware courses and if this nonetheless does not artwork you ought to would desire to run Highjack this and post your highjack this log onto a tech froum so as that they might address which code is spyware.
