For the record: I absolutely hate pop-ups, too.
We don't have true pop-up ads on this website. We do have an "interstitial" ad that shows up when you first visit the site -- the IBM video one, right? -- but it's programmed to not display if you're a previous visitor. I think it uses a cookie to figure this out, but I'm not sure.
At any rate, you shouldn't be seeing this on a daily basis -- that's not how it's intended to display. Drop me a line privately (use the "Contact" link in my bio at the bottom of this post) so I can ask you more questions and perhaps figure out why this is happening.
(The same goes for any of you who are seeing this. Drop me a line, please.)
