Its sounds like you are both infected with adware and a popup blocker wont do anything about it. Instead of doing something major and since you are using Windows 8, you can go in and use windows defender to scan your computer and delete malicious software (adware, spyware, etc.)
If that doesn't work, you could always use things like malwarebytes and download it. Its what I have on my computer, and ive never had any trouble.
If all else fails and you become aggravated, do you have your system backed up? You could always restore your computer, but I would try the above first. It wont take long for something like malwarebytes to eat that stuff up.
But, the first step I would try is you windows defender that's already on your computer. Run a scan with it and see what comes up. If that doesn't seem to solve anything, Id go with malwarebytes, and if that doesn't work, Id just back your computer up to whatever date it was clean.
If you need any other help, WildctK23 is pretty good on computers. Im sure he wouldn't mind to help walk you all threw something.
