Q: How do I stop the pop-ups ?

I'm getting Pop Ads via Google Chrome / Safari / Firefox . I have iMac & I've never had pop up problems w/ Mac before, I've been using Mac for a few years.  when I click a link, it redirects me to a pop up first.  My settings on Chrome Safari and Firefox are set to "Do not allow any site to show pop-ups."  However, they are still popping up.  How do I stop the pop-ups ?

iMac, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)

    I too have this question and although the answer by Linc Davis was very comprehensive, it was also extremely scary for the average Mac user like me. Is the anyone that can put his answer into a language thats more easily understandable. Unfortunately there are still many of us out there that do not have this level of competencies. many thanks.
