I run win xp, and for the last two days I get this full-screen pop-up out of
nowhere that scares the crap out of me....it pops up instantly, with a "scream" and produces a black and white picture of a girl with her eyes missing, it stays on screen for a few seconds, then disappears returning you to your previous window.....it's seems like a random thing but it happens at least a dozen times a day How do I get rid of it? thanks RZ |

It is probably associated with some website that you visited which planted
some spyware on your computer. Get and program like Spybot or Adaware which are both free programs and have the one you choose scan for problems, then have it fix any problems. Spybot can find things that were planted on your computer from websites and delete them. Also delete all cookies and delete your history and all temporary internet files. This should get rid of it unless it has some ingenious way of dodging anti-spy programs.
