Figure out which one it is (which you can usually tell by the name of the site it keeps sending you to or a name on the windows or systray icons it keeps popping up) and do an google search for it. If it's one of the more annoying ones, you'll probably find a removal tool.
You could also download spybot or something which tries to get the bulk of them, but it tends to miss the really nasty ones.
