Hi gang, I think I have some good news. This thing was bugging me too much so I went ahead and read through the info that Janl posted. That was all oriented towards firefox. I was perplexed that even though the properties in IE said it was a firefox plugin, it was happening mostly in IE. I checked the add ons and plug ins and whatnot for both browsers and nothing in either one.
So, being the adventurous type, I went to regedit and typed in superfish. I found 4 keys and deleted all 4. Then a reboot to see if I blew a hive (which I usually end up doing from time to time). So, anyway, the reboot went fine and guess what? No more popup.
I don't recommend deleting registry keys for folks because its a great way to crash the OS, but in this case it seems to have worked.
So unless there is any further info over the next few days, I'm going to close out this issue and get back to the real work of rendering.
Thanks again everyone for ideas. Oh, and by the way, cc cleaner that has a registry cleaner didn't get it, I had to manually find and remove the keys.
Be well, and I hope DAZ and Rendo go after these guys. Superfish was the culprit.
Oh, and by the way, I'm glad to continue recommending R and DAZ to folks. Now that I think about it, its in the DAZ EULA. :) Cheers.
