little box with red circle and X thru it

[orphic2001]

I have a little 1x1 box that has a small red circle in it
with an X on the circle. No message. I can't get rid of
it. I exit it and it comes back a few seconds later. I
have run my virus scan and it's not a virus. I am thinking
it may be a windows security problem but don't know how to
check it out. Has anyone seen this before or heard of it?

thanks
