1373872 2014-04-30 11:08:00 Lately, I get this pop-up once of twice a day. I couldn't capture a snap shot of it as the moment I tried to open snipping tools it just disappears. Sometimes, when I just click somewhere, it disappears. It only pops up when I'm watching online streaming.

It's something like this: " How do you want to open this type of file (html)?
Firefox
Internet Explorer "

Any clues?

1373874 2014-04-30 12:53:00 Could it be a form of malware? bk T (215)
1373875 2014-04-30 21:21:00 Its asking you what do you want to open html links with FF or IE. It isnt malware. Go to default programs and choose one for html Speedy Gonzales (78)

Cheers.
