pop up????
« on: September 11, 2009, 10:29:24 AM »

I'm not sure if i'm posting this in the right place, but anyway.........

When i boot up the PC (HP Pavillion a1429.uk) there is a pop up which is labeled 'Internet Explorer Script Error' and this 'file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/All%20Users/Application%20Data/yahoo!/YOP/yop.html'

Does anyone know what it is and how do i get rid????

Do you have the Yahoo toolbar installed ? ?
If so remove it.

It is the Yahoo Online protection app...garbage.
DLoad install and run StartupCPL from Mike Lin...
Then locate it in ths Startup folder and disable it.....

This BTW is a very handy small app that uses very little resources.
It will insert a Startup applet in your Control Panel.
