Small White Window on Desktop
I have a small window that opens up when I logon. This window is plain white
and does not have any way to close it.
If I right click on the window I get a tab, which opens another tab when I
run my pointer over it, which opens another tab when I run my pointer over
the second tab. Any time I left click on a tab nothing happens.
How can I get rid of this window. It stays on top and blocks everything. I
can move it around, so I put as far to the top as possible, but would like to
get rid of it.
Thanks for the help.

Re: Small White Window on Desktop
Have you tried running task manager to see what process or application may
be creating that window?

Re: Small White Window on Desktop
Run msconfig to see what programs start up at boot??
Also, have you tried an antivirus or spyware scan?
