Ative X on my desktop

My desktop has what I believe to be an active window
panel displayed in the lower right corner which is a
square box with red border stating privacy alert what you
didn't know... and other verbiage which extends below the
fold. I can't get rid of this thing, It obscures over my
word files, web browser, etc in thew lower right corner.
I think it is an active window file is because when I
open my control panle/display/themes I see my chosen
desktop with an Active Window dialog (which I also can't
get rid of. Any ideas for how I can git rid of this
nusiance?
 
Hello,

Try the following -

1. Go to Control Panel/Display and click ont he Desktop tab. Now click on
the Customize Desktop button at the bottom.
2. In the Desktop Items window click ont he Web tab. Make sure that
nothing is checked in the white box below. By default you should have one
item listed but not checked called My Current Home Page.
3. If there are more, you can can delete them or simply uncheck them
depending on what you would like.
4. Make sure the Lock desktop items box is not checked.

Let me know if this helps.

Best regards,
