IE 8 Problem

[ThomasonMA]

I am running IE 8. Frequently a new IE Window opens without me trying to open one. The new window appears to be soliciting something. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I don't use MSIE, particularly anything past IE6. Presumably IE8 has some sort of built in pop-up blocker; is it enabled?

There was a program from Gamevance that was causing the problem. I uninstalled the program and the problem was solved.

Its a malware attack. Run powerful antivirus and scan for malwares, virus. It may work fine later on.

Thank you to all who replied!

If the gamevance uninstall fixed you up, don't forget to mark the thread as solved so you don't continue to get answers to a non-issue.
