Why do I get these: http://system-
update.net/popups/old/popupxx.htm
They are blank pages that come up about 1 in 6 changes of
page.

And where did Cantfind.com come from? One day it just
appeared when IE could not locate a page. Now I get it
when it finds a page that does not respond fast enough.

First eliminate any scumware.

Note that AdAware and SpyBot S & D will each catch some things the other
won't. Also, each need to be updated before every use, even when just
downloaded. There's also a lot more to do than just those two programs.

If trying everything at that site does not fix the problem please post back
in the same thread.
