It sounds LIKE you have some serious ISSUES with your computer.

The popups sound like an internet HIGH jacker, or even a LOW jacker.

also run a virus scan in safe mode, but the popups were likely SPYWARE.

that should fix everything, but why would you have trouble rebooting? wouldn't it be as simple as turning off the pc from safe mode, then booting it back up into normal windows?

if you mean reformat, re-scan your pc for viruses and spyware from safe mode before reformatting, because a reformat removes EVERYTHING. if you really must reformat, make sure you have all the cds that came with the computer and you backup anything you need to keep before reformatting and reinstalling.
