It's getting to the point where I hate my new computer! Every time I open an
internet page, a box appears and says "Do you want to run this software?
Click Run or Cancel".

Note, I'm just a teenager without any experiance of computers. -_-"

Can somebody help me get rid of this annoying pop up box? I mean, it
preposterious knowing that by opening a single page wether it be yahoo or msn
that box will appear! It's unnerving to say the least. If you could help me I
would really appreciate it. : )
 
Hi,

That's a sign of a plugin/addon that is trying to run with elevated
privileges. Usually this occurs because it is not compliant with newer
standards. Go to tools/options/programs tab and click the button to manage
addons. Set the show dropdown to see those that are currently loaded. Click
on each one listed in turn and disable those loading with internet explorer
that are non-essential (actually, none of them are essential). Then close IE
and restart it.
