Neither does AIM, Yahoo IM, ICQ, or Adobe Photoshop :1orglaugh EVERYTHING I click on to open on my desktop sends me a stupid ACTIVE X error/warning popup, and every website, REGARDLESS of the browser throws one at the top of the screen. Thats why I said it has to be some sort of spyware or hyjack, that I can't seem to find, cause its doing it on everything!!
