Recently when I am online, w/o warning a download window pops up informing me that I have requested a file download. Then it starts tranferring file information for a redirect from a website 'www.sandboxer.com'. When I close it, it comes back. Eventually my screen becomes corrupt and I get a message about not enough memory. Is there any way to prevent this download window from popping up unrequested? Thanks, Rick D'Alton

I went to Google and did a search on "www.sandboxer.com" and found this
site:

It is Pest Patrol's site which gives a full report on Sandboxer. Looks
like you have a nasty Adware in your computer. If you do not feel
comfortable attempting to remove it, (Pest Patrol says it is a nefarious
program to deal with) you may want to take it to a professional to have
it purged from your system.
