Hi Crumm,
Yeah Angelcities does have a popup problem if it's the free version of the site. I have my homepage on Angelcities also but I pay for the ad-free upgraded version and don't have that problem.
As for pop-up blockers you can get them for free if you get a Yahoo toolbar or Google toolbar and they do a decent job usually. You can also use Firefox as your browser and it works pretty good, but our website (and some others) will look a bit funny from time to time.
I don't know of any foolproof way to get rid of pop-ups...like spam, I'm afraid they are here to stay and it's something we will have to learn to live with.
