No offense intended, but your question doesn't make much sense.
First, do you really use Ad-Aware 6?
Ad-Aware 6 has not had an update since 2004!!! Check this out :
"Ad-Aware 6 is no longer supported by its manufacturer, Lavasoft... Users with version 6 will not be able to obtain any of the necessary reference files released after October 26, 2004."
Also: "If you are using version 6 of this software, you are essentially unprotected from any spyware or malware that was introduced after October 26, 2004, since the reference files contain information only on spyware or malware that was known at that time."
Also Windows Defender is a legitimate Microsoft product and doesn't make pop ups.
So that means that your pop ups are probably for either Ultimate Defender, or IE Defender, which are both rogue.
First thing... Get rid of Ad-Aware 6! It is absolutely useless.
But assuming that the pop ups are for what I suggested, Superantispyware will take care of it:

Superantispyware will fix your problem, but you *really* need to work on your security.
Do you have a firewall installed? Zone Alarm isn't the best out there, but it's free and user friendly: http://www.zonealarm.com/store/content/catalog/pro...
Do you have an antivirus? If not, I suggest Avast (also free):

I would get McAfee 10 in 1 protection with site advisor. a icon on your toolbar will indicate if the website that you are about to click on or went to is a bad site
this software should clear up your mess
YOU have gotta remember, if you picked up a trojan, it was from a "red site" get SiteAdvisor
