Hi There,

I'm not a geek so please be kind to me

, but I was hoping someone out there might know what could be causing this problem.

Something happened yesterday morning (I don't know what, sorry) but ever since I've been getting an IE window pop-up appearing every hour (the URL for this is http://content.netvenda.com/sites/fg...l?file=games14 ) - don't go there, just showing.

I went out last night so shut down pretty much everything, all of my internet apps, so outlook, IE, ICQ, YIM, MSN Messenger and when I came back there were 3 of the above mentioned pop-up on my screen.

I've rebooted and it's still appearing? What do I do?

Any ideas would be much appreciated.

(had to edit, should have read the forum notices first!)

OS: Windows XP, V5.1, service pack 1
Processor: AMD 2400
motherboard: Soltek SL-75FRV
RAM: 512k
HD: 80 mg, non partitioned

Browser: IE V6.0.2800

Thanks,
Julie
