Hi, Melissa, I got to the file I'm proofreading, hit Alt+H to get into the help menu. When I arrowed about, I heard "Show Office Assistant". I got out of there.

Press alt h to go to the help menu, and arrow down. You should come to an item that says either show Office Assistant, or hide Office Assistant. If it says hide Office Assistant, press enter to hide it. If it says show Office Assistant, simply escape out of the menus, and let us know. There are other settings in the options menu that might need to be changed if it isn't the Office Assistant that is causing the popups.
