Can someone tell me where these pop ups are coming from?

I have an old desk top computer running on Windows 7. A few months ago these pop ups appeared on the right hand side of my screen no matter what page I am on. Mostly news items.
The first photo shows what the pop up looks like when I first see it
The second photo shows when I click on setting within the pop up. As you can see it gives me a choice to block.
Even when I click on block it still comes back.
Every single day I have to click them off. That lasts for awhile but they soon reappear?
Any idea where they are coming from and how to get rid of them for good?computer screen1 (800x600).jpgcomputer screen2 (800x600).jpg
 

Pinky, yea, pop ups are making me crazy.
I use three browsers-I assume you have to run pop up blocker on each
browsers? Yes?
 
There is a thread on browsers, pop up and other info. can't find it on
"Search"
Lots of good words about 'Brave Browsers' and some bad, I have it, few if any pop ups.
You tube makes me crazy
Use 3 browsers because I have so many 'favorites' it takes 2-4 minutes to
find the one I'm seeking.
Also, am ignorant on how this infernal machine works.

Pinky and Diva-thanks a lot
 
I hope the ad block works Ruth. Funny but I don't get any pop up ads and I don't use ad block or anything else to block ads. Maybe I'm just lucky..knock on wood :ROFLMAO:🌷🐸
 
Ruth--if you are using Firefox, just go to settings and there is an option to turn off pop-ups.
