Are you using Norton of McAfee AV?
Have you recently installed any new programs?

No using Norton or McAfee
It is a brand new computer, with Vista now installed twice. I did a new
clean install with only Vista to try to fix the problem and it is the same
as the first install.

Many new computers come with trial versions of a Norton or McAfee
antivirus program already installed, and included with what gets
reinstalled when you reinstall Vista.

I personally formated the HD and installed Vista (twice). The 2nd, time
because I just could not find a fix for this problem. Therefore the 2nd time
I only had Vista installed nothing else, when I checked what it did. There
is no virus program installed at present.

When it opens as an icon on the taskbar, right click it. Is Restore frayed
out?
