This morning I turned on my machine and everything seemed fine until I started the Internet Explorer. I got Pop-Ups all over the screen, I was told Pop-ups had been enabled and that to disable them to call some number. I had to use the task manager to shut down the Internet Explorer. I decided to try Firefox and it had the same problems.
I got rid of these problems by doing a system restore followed by a complete scan of my system.. The scan did not find any problem.
I have been trying to figure out what caused this problem because I don't want a repeat. The only thing I did was to install a PCE Wi-Fi card and the driver was downloaded from ASUS. I just scanned that directory again and nothing was found.
Anyone know what caused this Pop-up problem? (I don't believe in Gremlins. )
