I found a undetected popup program:
c:\windows\popuper.exe (17Kb). Started via
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\ex
plorer\run with keys like notepad2.exe REG_SZ popuper.exe.
 
This is the method to permanently remove it from your
system.

Before going into safe mode, disable System Restore.

You may need to go into safe mode and do the following: -

1. Delete it from the location.

2. Go to Registry Editor and remove it from
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run ,
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run &
HKU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

3. Run MSconfig and remove it from Startup. (you can
download this msconfig.exe from driverdownloads.com)

Restart PC and enable back System Restore once it's ok.
