Gerald,
I keep getting a certain message when I goot up. It says click the bubble.
Then it says pay no attention to the man behind the curtain. I m Oz, the
great and terrible. Then it stops talking and I can't find it, and I just go
on with my day. Who knows.

Maybe it was the Wizard of OZ? I also get these strange bubble messages
when I boot up my computer. Most of the time, I get a message like, "Your
computer may be at risk. No firewall is turned on", which disappears
immediately before I can take any action. Of course, my Windows Firewall is
always turned on, so this message is probably nothing more than a bogus
bubble issued by the gremlins lurking inside my tower, designed for my
befuddlement. Unless you start seeing some real bubbles pouring out of your
computer like on the set of the Lawrence Welk show, you probably have
nothing to worry about.
Gerald
