OK, I've downloaded both of the programs that Cuffy10 suggested I try, and to answer your question about the X in the corner, there is none that's why I usually have to use the window's key for the Start menu and then close IE out. Plus I'm losing my battle with popups, their everywhere I was trying out this program called Wall Guardian (or something like that) according to its count I had 81 hits on unwanted advertising or spy tracking. Why didn't the Norton pick this up, I've downloaded all the updates available for it and I've scanned the computer three times on different days and it comes out fine.
My next question if what is n-Case? The last time I tried to get rid of it the system went down and I had to do a system restore to an earlier time. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Lynn Kucera

Don't open it or scan. Try closing the window with the X in the corner ??

Install them both and they should find the source of that pop-up ad.
