Is there a way when a user logs onto the site that an admin or moderator can get a in forum pop up saying user (member name) just logged into the site (ip address)

Yes that's possible. By doing something like:
1. When user logs in, insert entry into some table with info about who logged in.
2. When an admin/moderator is logged in, make them poll a script (using JavaScript) every few seconds that checks if new users logged in.
3. If any users logged in, return the result and read at the client side.
4. Show popup.
