there's one way to find out if you got that pop-up bug...
 
do a "system restore" to a point just prior to having this problem.  "system restore" is very safe and you don't really lose any data, just any programs that you may have installed... BUT NOT THE DATA!
 
IF YOU CAN'T DO A SYSTEM RESTORE, YOU HAVE THAT STUPID POP UP BUG AND YOU NEED TO EITHER REINSTALL XP [WHICH I HAD TO DO] OR I SUPPOSE YOU COULD TRY ONE OF THOSE ZAPPER PROGRAMS.
 
ANOTHER WAY I'VE BEEN TOLD THAT'LL TELL YOU IF YOU HAVE THAT BUG IS TO GO TO ONE OF THE "ANTI-VIRUS" AKA "ANTI-BOB?" [LOL, JUST KIDDING] SITES.  I'M TOLD THAT WHEN YOU GO TO MACEFEE [SP] OR NORTON SITE, IF YOU HAVE THE BUG, IT DISCONNECTS YOU FROM THE INTERNET WHEN YOU TRY TO VISIT ONE OF THE ANTI-VIRUS SITES...
 
hope this helps,
jfo

Sounds like you got a data miner installed.
 
Go to www.cnet.com and get ad-aware, spybot and HijackThis (all free) and run them in that order.  Between the help and the information on each item found (you can Google the filenames) these programs can fix you up.  If there is a bug found that these programs won't kill, then google the bug.  Someone will tell you how to kill it.  Sometimes it is required to boot your computer in the safe mode to get the bugs removed.  Safe mode is always the better mode to run these programs.
