http://tinypic.com/5fhw5u I think the picture speaks for itself. Have been getting these for about 2 weeks now and it really irritates me when I'm playing something and then one of those bumps to my desk. Is it a program that sends those or what? how can I remove them? I have scanned my computer with Panda online scan, TDS-3, Norton Antivirus 2002 and every single spyware detectors I have found, none of them finds nothing suspicious or anything. Help would appreciated
My Finnish really isn't up to par, but this certainly looks like a Messenger Service popup. If so, it isn't due to anything actually on your computer. Have a look here: http://www.itc.virginia.edu/desktop/docs/messagepopup/ FYI, disabling the Messenger service, as explained in that article, is only a workaround. The reason you're getting these popups is that you're not running a (well configured) firewall. I suggest you get one. Try Zonealarm freeware: http://www.zonelabs.com/store/content/home.jsp/ Good luck,
Thanks! I have a firewall, but it's totally crap. I had Zonealarm but I wanted to change it because for some reason it caused a major lag in most of the games I play at the moment. Is there any other good and free firewall you would suggest?
I'm running LooknStop myself, and I'm extremely happy with it. There's a forum right here as well: https://www.wilderssecurity.com/forumdisplay.php?f=28 Homepage: http://www.looknstop.com/
