Trish,
It sounds as though you may have installed something that is spyware.
You probably should download, install and run ad-aware.  You can get
that at:

http://www.lavasoftusa.com

Be sure you get the latest reference file.  Also a word of caution with
this program.  The safest way to us ad-aware is to run your first scan
to identify the spyware components.  Then go to add/remove programs and
uninstall the software that is identified as spyware BEFORE letting
ad-aware remove the components.

Once you have that cleaned up, go to:

http://www.emsproject.com/FS/Support.htm

And download FreeSurf.  This is a very good pop-up stopper.  It has a
plug-in called Washboard that helps you keep cache and url's cleaned up
as well as rules that you can set to enable certain sites popup windows
and disable others.

Subject: [24hoursupport] Iwin.com mysteriously appears

At different times (not on start-up of Internet Explorer) iwin.com will
mysteriously pop up on my screen, the whole webpage, not a pop-up. It's
mildly annoying; does anyone know why it would do that and how I can
make it stop? Thanks.
