This annoying pop up keeps appearing on my screen.

Lately, I have been getting this annoying little popup which says: "Windows- No Disk. There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into the drive."
I suspect it's the Removable Disk which is to blame, however, I can't get to remove the suspected file, since the folder stops responding.

what happens when your reboot?

Maybe you should make a uninstallation of windows?

That could help it. It may be a virus

Does Your computer run normally, or are you computer half broken?

My computer has been acting very strange.

No its not a virus. 99% of the time it has nothing to do with viruses.

1. Insert a removable disk in the removable drive before you start the computer.
2. Change the drive letter assignment for the removable drive to a letter other than C.

To change the drive letter assignments in Windows XP, follow these steps:
Log on to the computer as Administrator.
Insert a disk in the removable drive.
Click Start, right-click My Computer, and then click Manage.
Click Disk Management.
Right-click the partition, logical drive, or volume that you want to change, and then click Change Drive Letter and Paths.
Click the removable drive, click it, click Change, click the drive letter that you want to use, and then click OK.

One teensy question.
How do I log in as admin?
I'm horrible at computers and what is this removable disk?

Im also getting messages from the internet provider saying that they have detected spam from me.

Contact your internet service provider directly either from their official site, or by phone to confirm that these messages about spam are indeed correct, and to make sure you aren't getting scam e-mails. You definitely don't want to give your information to someone else.

Perhaps someone has made their their way onto your network or hacked you? Secure your wireless router with a password (key), if you have a wireless router.
