451092 2006-05-03 21:08:00 See if there's a Screenflasher entry in add/remove programs.

If there is, uninstall it.

Or see if there's a screenflasher folder in program files, if there is delete it, then use ccleaner to clean things up.

451094 2006-05-03 21:53:00 Go to tools / manage add-ons in IE .

And see if there's an entry here for screenflasher . If there is, disable it .

It could be an IE plugin .

451096 2006-05-04 06:32:00 Checked. Everything looks legitimate except something called "Research" with no publisher. Nuke?

Cheers

451097 2006-05-04 06:47:00 I have that same research entry here. Dunno what it is.

Look here

C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files

See what files are here.. They're usually small.

That file maybe here... Since this is where files (like Sun Java / flash install info or some part of it / activex files get installed).

Does the name screenflasher come up if u do a search on the hdd??

451098 2006-05-04 07:11:00 I think the research entry is to do with ms office. SolMiester (139)
451099 2006-05-04 07:59:00 Checked for a file called screenflasher already - nothing.

Nothing obvious in c:\windows\downloaded.

:confused:

451100 2006-05-04 08:06:00 Can you post a snapshot of this dialogue box, and where it pops up here (www.imagef1.net.nz)

And post the link it gives back here.
