Check under Mouse in the Control Panel. Sometimes there is a setting there.

If you are referring to clicking links on an internet website...

Sometimes websites put a transparent layer on their site that is like a huge link for advertising. Clicking it can give you a pop-up or pop-down advertisement. What websites are you having the issue on? My guess is it is either the coding in the webpage, or possibly the browser you are using may be having a hiccup.

IE 9 is actually quite good. A lot of nerd types that I know have switched back from Firefox or Chrome. I was hesitant to believe it myself but have been pleasantly surprised.
