There are a couple of VERY prevalent viruses out there that generate pop-ups.

More info needed:

What OS are you running?
What is the pop-up saying?
What site are you being pushed towards?

Assuming you are running Windows XP and you already have an anti-virus program installed:
Shut down, boot up in Safe Mode, run anti-virus scan, then shut down.

Start again in Normal Mode.
