Hi Mike,

Thanks for responding but, this is in more detail at the
bottom of the screen where dialogue runs such as opening
page www.yahoo.com the message appeared IE warning your
computer has been tracked and my antivirus captured a
malicious script. I had to close the browser to remove
the warning. I have not had the message again. Was the
script an attempt to advertise software as you suggested?
There was no ad offering any software such as evidence
eliminator, history kill or firewall? Thanks again for
your time and response. Was this supposed to be a pop-up
that went bad? or something else?
