Security issue

[Mitch Hatfield]

As of today, I have started to get a pop-up Windows box saying "Supervisor Password required. It appears to relate in some way to Internet Otions, but I neither want it nor need it!

For the record, along with Windows98SE and IE6, I am currently running AVG, Zone Alarm, AdSubtract, AdAWare and Tracks Eraser. I mention these because all or any of them might have caused the sudden appearance of my mystery window. I'm as tight as Fort Nox out there and I certainly don't need any more help from IE6.

Any ideas on how to get rid of this unwelcoe visitor? http://www.PCGuide.com/ubb/frown.gif http://www.PCGuide.com/ubb/frown.gif

Hi Mitch,

Seems like an IE6 thing. Check HERE (http://support.microsoft.com/search/preview.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q310401) to see if this is what happened. You should be able to get out of it.

"...tight as Fort Knox." Around here they call it "...tight as a bulls butt in high fly season." And it's high fly season up here now... http://www.PCGuide.com/ubb/eek.gif
