On my home laptop, at times during the day i'm running a program and all of a sudden, the program becomes minimized and a internet explore opens up, also minimzed, then, when you try to maximise it, the pageoff the screen, this internet page then says 'unable to connect' and begins to open more minimzed windows, the real irritating thing is you can't ignore it because if you try and continue with the program you are running then the program becomes minimized and your back to the desktop! Norton Anti-virus says my computers clean as does spybot (adaware softwere) so i believe something has been placed in my registry for when i boot the pc? If any can assist me in any way or has any information regarding this please reply. Thankx
(also 2 other things are that even when connected to the internet exactly the same thing happens, also spybot is identifying a re-occuring program in my registry known as 'VXD2' which is deleted and seems to re-appear again, it is identified as a threat by spybot but it has no thret details, even with this file deleted i still have this problem) Thankyou again in advance for any replys
 
Sounds like you have the bug! When that happens to my computer I reload the origitnal software. If you uninstalled a program, sometimes it removes files that are needed for other program. This really screws up the PC. Just format the Hard Disk and reload software!
