I think I have a gremlin in my pc.

Earlier tonight it started to throw a box up everytime you click on a website...it gives lots of details...and if a password was typed in it shows the password! 

I have tried to copy t to show you but it won't!!

It is very annoying and a bit worrying!

I have done a virus check tonight and spyware etc and it did find a few things all of which have been killed...but it is still doing it....

Any ideas what it is anyone? and more importantly how to get rid of it?

Try downloading this and see if it helps. Is your firewall up and running and do you have all the latest microsoft updates installed ? These would be the first things to check.

I wouldnt do any Online banking ect until you have sorted it out.

Have tried this and it didnt find anything new.

I can't do any more updates for windows as MS have identified my copy of XP Pro as counterfeit  and I can no longer receive them.

I am going to re-install windows tomorrow night (from a different copy  ) and hopefully this should fix the immediate problem. Do you think this is correct?

Once I have a new copy on the PC I will virus check...etc...and fingers crossed the box problem goes away!

Cheers
