I am being bothered by a window opening with the heading of the day's date
and time. There are no minimization or close buttons on it. The message in
the box is the standrd verbage when IE can not open a web page "The page
cannot be displayed" I do not even have to be in IE and it occurs. I have to
use Task Manager to close it.

Anyone one know what I can do to stop it? I am running XP Home with SP2 and
Norton's Security package indicating no viruses.

Sounds like Norton is not 100% right. Well, it seems not to be a virus
but some other adware/spyware thingy.

Go to a security-related forum for useful advice.

BTW, doesn't Alt-F4 close the window? Press it while the window has the
focus.
