Hi M.Ang
You don't mention the version of Windows you are using, which really is a
must when asking for help in the newsgroups, but, you likely have some sort
of 3rd party software on your system causing the problem, such as adware,
spyware, malware or other. Try the following as it may apply to your OS to
fully clean your system:
Dealing with Unwanted Spyware and Parasites:
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/unwanted.htm
Be aware, your Anti-Virus won't detect all types of warez, Trojans, malware,
worms, etc., and neither can other adware or spyware related programs such
as AdAware and SpyBot. They don't have the proper definitions. They must
also be run in Safe Mode with Hidden Files enabled in order to fully scan
all files. Even if you have run such programs and nothing shows up, it does
not mean your system is clean. It takes a series of programs to fully clean
your machine. *Some very aggressive and damaging variants of malware can
replicate themselves repeatedly, or mutate, if not removed properly.*
Download and install HiJackThis. This is one of the most important steps.
Follow all instructions carefully. This program should be run in Normal
mode.

All of a sudden I started getting this popup message everytime a new page
goes to open in Internet Explorer. This is the box that pops up:
Internet Explorer
Run-time Error "5"
Invalid procedure call or agreement
Then when I click ok the window opens. Any help would be appreciated.
