Just prior to that msg first appearing you probably installed some poorly written software. Check back, and uninstall it if that is the case.

I have experience the same thing some time ago. I have recently scanned with Spybot Search and Destroy 1.5 and found a malware called Virtumundo.Generic which spybot removed but came back again after sometime. Spybot gave a link to another site

http://www.castlecops.com/CLSID.html
there i've found and link to
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic18610.html
there it recommend a tool to remove Virtumundo and related spyware

you can download that from
http://secured2k.home.comcast.net/to...undoBeGone.exe
I've run this in the safe mode (with networking enabled) and it said it detected some Browser Helper Object and it removed it. After that it went away.

Hope its the same problem with u and
hope it helps
Good Day
