that sounds like a virus.. you should go to Best Buy or some place where they can take a look at it and then figure it out.. usually Best Buy can solve the problem.

If you are running Norton Antivirus AND Verizon Online Security, that's a problem. Verizon's security suite is actually McAfee. Having 2 antivirus programs installed and running can cause all sorts of problems. One of which it sounds like you are experiencing with the "disable pop-up blocker" message. Pick one to keep and uninstall the other. If you have a high speed Internet connection, then you should have more than just an antivirus program. If you already have Verizon's full internet security suite, which includes virus protection and a firewall, then I'd keep Verizon's and uninstall Norton.
As far as the random files you are prompted to save, it'd help to know what some of those filenames were, and the exact wording of the message asking you to save the files.
go to symantecs online security analysis and run online security, and an online virus scan. if they find anything you will be instructed as to what to do next. my advice, stay away from some of the places you have been going to avoid this prob in the future
