Michael,
Could you please do us a favour and check your system with some of
the following and report the results?
Spybot S&D - http://www.safer-networking.org/?page=download
Ad-aware - http://www.lavasoft.de/
- http://housecall.trendmicro.com/housecall/start_corp.asp
The reason is that there are reports [e.g.
http://www.excedra.com/ipccouncil/justin/viewoffender.php?f_id=58]
that the popups come from infected PC's that have a Browser Helper
Object that scans the content of websites visited for keywords in
order to open pop-up advertising when and if they are detected on a
site. It's possible that Wicket is triggering some of the keyword
searches.
