Here are two that are spyware free :D

KILLAD
As you may have noticed, many Internet sites love to open additional browser windows (so called "pop-ups") with advertising contents. KILLAD assists you by closing all undesirable popups automatically. Small in size, undemanding to system resources, fast and reliable, KILLAD is highly customizable.

POPUP KILLER (http://software.xfx.net/ftp/puk17setup.exe)
Aren't you tired of all those annoying sponsors PopUp's that get displayed when you visit some WEB sites? POPUP KILLER is a small program which can be configured to automatically close previously windows in most browsers. Since the first public version, POPUP KILLER has evolved from a purely manual application to an intelligent program; it can detect potential PopUp windows and close them so fast that you will not even have the time to see them!

scoot; Looks like a handy prog. I never get 'Pop-ups', tho.

Seems I remember disabling them Manually once, when I came across it. Don't rem where.
