Stubborn pop-up window

Well, not actually a window, just a task bar or
something. The window says "To install latest Netpal
Games update, please click Yes". I click OK (the only
option), and the window just comes back. Same thing
happens if I click X or press Alt-F4. Is there a way to
close it without rebooting the computer?
 
Hi, Ashley -

See if you can remove the bar through Control Panel -->
Add or Remove Programs.

If that doesn't work, you might be able to remove it by
installing and running Spybot Search and Destroy - you'll
find it at http://www.safer-networking.org and it's free
for personal use.

Another great program for stuff like this is Ad-Aware -
which is also free for personal use. I use both at home
because one program tends to catch things the other
doesn't. You can get Ad-Aware at
http://www.lavasoftusa.com

Worst case, you can uninstall the darned thing manually
using the information at

Good luck!
