Answer 1

you may have some sort of spyware.

Try Adaware

its free

however you may need a more intensive anti spyware.

try Webroot Spy Sweeper

Answer 2

I recommend that you check to see if your programs have the latest definitions because it could be a new virus/adware.

Also it could go through your "messenger" port, search online for a way to disable that and if that virus/spyware/adware whatever it is is using it then it will block it.

Try to search for what is written on the popup or in the title bar and see if it reveals any information on what it is.

Also some virus and spyware/adware programs aren't the greatest so if worse comes to worse try to find something better.

I pay for F-Prot antivirus and Max Secure Spyware detector. They have caught everything for me. I was able to reduce computer boot up time from 8 minutes to about 2 minutes.

Good luck,

Tom

Sounds like some kind of adware or trace spyware.

You can download the free version of Superantispyware. I use this software and is well known to find what all othrs miss or are unable to delete. http://www.superantispyware.com
