Why am I suddenly getting so many pop ups on every site visited

I am using Mozilla Foxfire as my browser and would like to know why all of a sudden just about every website I go to I am getting all kinds of pop ups that I've not been getting before. I have my settings to not allow pop ups. I am still using Windows XP and was wondering if this might have something to do with it.
