Default Computer help please!

This window keeps popping up saying 'Internet Explorer needs to close the window,some reason blah,sorry for the inconvience' and it's been happening for more than a week now!

It's so annoying because it's happening all the time and I keep having to re-open my windows and I've had video's loading before that I've had to re-start.

Anyways I was wondering if anyone had any clue what was wrong and how to fix it pleaseeeee??

If you're on Vista, then I think it's to do with the OS, because I'm on Vista and I'm always getting errors like that, but it never usually closes down. It says it will, but it doesn't lol. I always get other random popups as well, like
"Superfetch has experienced a problem and must now close down." WTH is Superfetch? lol.

If you're not on Vista, then that whole paragraph was a waste of time. lol.

Malwarebytes -anti malware

^^ Download that and see if it finds any Trojan viruses and if it does that might help.

If not get back to us.

Laura, I misread your original post. I thought it was pop-ups and when I realised it was ie errors, I deleted my post to you.

However, if you still want free adware removal.. spybot is free. Here's the download linkage:

Cool - hope that works. There should also be a thing when it detects all the virus files etc that says delete or replace and you can delete the bad ones.

Often with these free scans they exaggerate how bad things are because they want to get you to pay for their software.
