Which version of Windows, Jeff?
Is it a grey colored window, about 3" x 5"?
Try turning off "messenger".
Use Spybot S & D and Ad-ware.
Download spybot search & destroy Wrom: X

You can download pest patrol's program for free. They
will tell you how to manually remove it, for free. If you
want to use pest patrol's removal tools, you must buy the
program for $40.
tedious but often useful is "clean boot troubleshooting".
I would also suggest you get the CWS Shredder tool and run
it with
everything closed. Tom Coyote's site is down, so found
the mirror for Hijack This. And the spyware
forum one is up at the moment.
OK......found a site where you can download CWS
Shredder......it is at....

But first try the Hijack This one.......
Go to:
http://mjc1.com/mirror/hjt/
Download "Hijack This!" [freeware]
Unzip, double-click "HijackThis.exe" and Press "Scan".
When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change
into a "Save
Log" button.
Click: "Save Log" (generates: "hijackthis.log")
Next, go to the below location:
http://www.spywareinfo.com/forums/
Sign in, go to the "Spyware and Hijackware Removal"
section.
Press "New Topic", copy and paste hijackthis.log into your
new message.
Let them decipher it for you.
Scan your PC, at
www.pandasoftware.com [ on the left,
about 1/2 way down, look for "active scan". Panda often
classifies pests as viruses, that other AV programs do not
consider viruses.
Best of success.

Hello,
While I am surfing the net, the following window has just
recently started popping up all the time...
"This window is busy. Closing this window may cause some
problems. Do you want to close it anyway?"
