One of the best popup managers I've found is "Popup Manager",
www.endpopups.com
and for scanning a computer for adware, spyware, I like SpyBot:
http://spybot.safer-networking.de/
but LavaSoft has also released Ad-Aware 6.0 recently, and then there's Pest
Patrol.
Hope this helps.

BTW: First time I ever saw porno popups was when I was visiting a friend (a
minister) who had
"discovered" these disturbing popups. Only problem was, the only way for a
porno popup to appear
is to either have wittingly or unwittingly visited the offending site. I'm
sure with your Deacon
it was one unwitting.
