Iterate through the Form.Controls collection (you'll probably have to do it recursively to cover container controls) and either set the Enabled property to false, or change the ForeColor and BackColor properties. You'll need to set them back when your popup closes.

This may not work for all controls - particularly if any of them are UserControls which don't expose their inner workings. For those, you will have to add the functionality to each control.
