View Single Post - Something Pops Up in the Taskbar

Doctor Feelgood · Administrator

My main machine has an annoying issue... Every once in a while a box pops up in the Windows XP taskbar. It is the usual shape and size of the rectangle you get for any program, but there is no text or icon on it, and it lasts only a few seconds. I can not grab it or otherwise do anything to identify it. Has been like this for weeks...

Spybot, Ad-Aware, AVG, and a bunch of other apps see nothing wrong on the system, so I assume there is some service running like that.

Anyone have a clue on how to ID it, stop it, hide it?!? Thanks.
