why does this pop up?

[Guest]

I have windows XP (home) and almost everytime I go online and try to watch a
video from any website, this box pops up from windows titled:

"INTERNET SHARING CONFIGURATION" C:\Program Files\Internet
Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE is attempting to change or view this computer's
Internet Connection Protection settings. To give C:\Program Files\Internet
Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE permission to edit these settings for as long as the
program is open, click YES.

I just close the box out and it works fine, but it's annoying....anyway to
get rid of this popping up everytime?

Thanks

Because you have no virus protection. Your computer is infected.

This used to happen to me. I suspect your XP version is SP1. Upgrade to SP2
and this problem can be eliminated for good.
