How to turn off these pop ups?

You are on windows, right? If yes, are those "Windows" actual windows which look like legit windows-windows?

Just noticed, they're not legit.. It's just Photoshopped.

Are they popups? Do they go over the website contents? Mind sending me a screenshot in a PM so I know what they look like? I know a lot of stuff about things like this.

People need to stop assuming that adult content has been viewed or downloaded through the computer, this can also be the result of installation of programs where the majority of viruses and unintentional plug-ins come from, not all ads reflect search cookies and browsing, especially not the one described as a pop-up and not a Google ad on the side of a webpage. Browser problems also tend to not relate differently between Windows, Macs or other OS'.

How frequently do the pop-ups occur? Can you replicate the problem by doing an action like opening a tab or link?

Try Google Chrome, Safari and Internet Explorer and see if the problem replicates in these other browsers.

Try Google Chrome with this extension: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/block-site/eiimnmioipafcokbfikbljfdeojpcgbh/related?hl=en or any other types. It will most likely block it on Chrome, if it does not then it is most likely a virus on the computer as a whole and you can look to scan it.

How did this thread turn from trying to fix @ToeKnee 's problem to a flame war over Macs and PCs?
They both compel in their own areas;

They're more of a buisness / arts computer. Things like GarageBand are amazing tools if used right. They're not necessarily meant for playing video games.

Like what @The Arena Master said Macs are great for a business and multimedia computer. Whereas PCs (In my opinion) excel at gaming and customization (From a software and hardware point of view).
