Hey. Does anyone know how to get rid of this thing? It always pops up the white bar next to the start menu where I circle.

go into the task manager and see if there are any applications running, if there are check the process and end it, then disable it using msconfig or your internet security software.

right click on the taskbar and select "task manager"

to get to msconfig, go to "Run..." from the start menu and type 'msconfig'

After I type in miscofig what do I do?

**SFR** · 02-27-2006, 05:56 AM

I would first run some virus and ad/spy/malware scans...

Also, if it is something that pops up when you log in, go to the startup tab in msconfig and uncheck the startup item..

Click the processes tab write down any that you don't recognize.

to get to msconfig, go to "Run..." from the start menu and type 'msconfig'
click the startup tab this is a list of all processes started when you startup your computer. Uncheck all the processes you wrote down from the task manager.
Restart your computer. The bar should be gone. if not go back to msconfig startup tab and uncheck one thing from the list. Restart. If it's still there repeat and restart.
After the white bar has gone away. go back to msconfig and click the checkbox on all the items in the startup list EXEPT the last one you unchecked.
