Is this an application that is creating pop-up windows?

Or is the Windows Messenging service included with your OS?

BTW, what OS are you running?




What text is in the title bar of these pop-up windows?

Good. In the future .. go get www.popupstopper.com or something equivelent. Unless you are religious about running WindowsUpdate (not just when the globe icon appears) you are destined for trouble.

Keep WindowsUpdate installs current and have a PopUp Blocker running and you'll be safe.

I get complaints about this all the time.

P.S. PopUps are *such* a nuisance that the next version of IE will have one included by default.
