Default Anonymous Error??

Hey guys,

Another tech related question. When I started up my laptop, I get this blank window asking me Yes or No....what is it? Should I respond to such anonymous randomness?

Just click Yes, what could happen?

But really have you installed anything new lately? Does this happen everytime you log in? Check the startup programs and see if anything is in there.

What is that first program in your task bar? It has no name and may be related to the unnamed dialog. Check your task manager and see if you notice any programs you don't recognize - it could be something not so nice.

click on task manager and google all of the .exe files that show up - some will be from windows, some other progs, etc...

you are looking for something that wasnt there before or is out of place.

i wouldnt click either without finding out what it was

sysinternals makes a good program identifier prog, cant think of the name right now

I’m always amazed these sportscasters and announcers can call the game with McDavid’s **** in their mouths all the time.
