Maybe he's got spy ware in there--did you run spybot or some such? or run it thru Panda active online? ----- Original Message ----- From: "§Pat§" <rhekay@xxxxxxxxxx> To: <"Undisclosed-Recipient:;"@freelists.org> Sent: Wednesday, January 21, 2004 6:21 PM Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- PLEASE HELP I hope I can explain this....my friend who is 70 yrs old plays games on Pogo. Everytime he clicks on the shortcut to go to Pogo he gets this popup stating his computer is being tracked ..yadda yadda yadda...then his CD rom drawer pops open scaring the poor man to death..he has a popup blocker but this always manages to get through...I then have to go back in to IE tools..internet options and put his home page back to what he wants...this may last 2 days and then the process starts all over again...........all the poor old man wants is his email and his games on Pogo. Any suggestions how to stop this from changing his home page and that darn popup from opening his CDrom drawer (other than leaving it open) .
