    Hello everybody.
    i'd like your help on something.
    Recently i bought a laptop with windows Vista on it.
    I don't know Vista very well untill now.
    So from the beggining (or i don't remember when this started) an annoying search window popups all the time. A window that you search your computer something. I close it , but here it opens again.
    There are some days that it doesn't open. But there are many other days that it opens like crazy !!
    It is a search window.

    Also , when i use Internet explorer, another similar search windwo popsup again. Similar but not same.

    Do you have any idea how do i stop this thing? Is it a service? a spyware? It seems like search windows to me.

    Any idea how to stop this annoying window ?

    thank you

    Hi. What does the search window look like? can you take a screenshot? To take a screenshot, press print screen, then open paint and paste it. Then go to www.tinypic.com and upload the picture, then give me the link here.

    If it's a startup item, type in msconfig in the search in start menu and press enter. Head to startup tab and disable it.

    You also might be a victim of spyware infection. Please take a pic of your problem.
