I am running WinXP and every time I boot up, I get two pop
up messages;
1) n-Case Alert, indicating that the system has detected
that a third-party application has removed n-Case without
my consent. This could cause some programs to not run as
expected. What is n-Case and should I re-install it?

2) The second pop is; Motive SmartBridge Autoupdate. Asks
if I want to download new updates, Yes or No? I Don't
know what this is and hesitant to download.

If I decide not to download updates, how do I keep the pop
ups from occurring?

Thanks in advance for any help,
 
Greetings --

n-Case is a form of spyware. Two products that are normally
quite effective at finding and removing such scumware are Ad-Aware
from www.lavasoft.de and SpyBot Search and Destroy from
www.safer-networking.org/. Both have free versions.

Symantec provides removal instructions:

Additional manual removal instructions for the most common
varieties of scumware are available here:

Motive Smartbridge is spyware that usually comes from Verizon.
Have you installed any software to link your computer to a cell phone?
