I don't think it is a pop-up related to the use of IE. That title bar is most likely a trap to get you to believe it is a pop-up when you first look at it.

You would then go and put up a pop-up blocker, but the message would still come up, thus eliminating that from the victim's mind and getting them one step closer to actually believing it is a real Windows message.

Obviously it isn't, Windows would never advertise any 3rd party software. They don't even advertise 1st party software from Microsoft..

Have you done a simple virus/Adware/spyware scan?
