Hi All,
I have gotten a weird pop-up twice in the last couple of weeks now.
It came up in a small window and inside, it says "OK1" with a little button to click on. I was unable to close out any other windows until I clicked "OK1".
I am wondering if maybe it is a virus or something?
I posted earlier about a cpl trojans that were found in my system that I got rid of - so I don't think the pop-up has anything to do with them.....
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Jodie

Dunno (sounds suspicious), but if you get anything like that again then hold down Alt and press F4 which will close it. I'm still on W98SE but it's about certain that this works on XP too.

Thanks Derek,

I will try that :)

I ran another Housecall scan and it says my system is clean.... hmmmm...
Could it be malicious code?
I googled about it and found nothing. Grrr, lol.
AVG is set to scan every morning and there's never anything in the Virus Vault when I check it.
Thanks again,
Jodie

I expect you've already got Ad-Aware but if not it would be worth downloading, updating & running. Same goes for this Trojan finder/fixer:

A2FREE - JUST DOWN PAGE

If you find anything (by any means) turn off system restore while it is fixing it, then turn restore back on again afterwards (stops 'em coming back). Doing this in Safe Mode as well is even better.

You probably have Windows Messenger enabled and it's being sent to your PC. May do nothing more malicious than see if you have Messenger enabled.
