I had no programs running (IE: Internet Explorer, any messenger services, etc) and out of nowhere, I get a non IE looking popup ad, the sort that you can do with java, that doesn't have the IE color bar on top. Just a grey message box sort of ad. It was telling me that a certain unknown stock was going to boom. Seems like garbage. Anyway, what might be causing ads to appear with no visible programs running? I went through my system with Control Alt Delete, to see what functions besides programs were running, and all looked like they belong. There was one "StartEAK.exe" or something to that effect that stood out for being in caps, but other than that, nothing too weird seemed to be there. Any ideas what I could do? Things to delete? Files to purge? Thanks in advance.
