Brett,
Sorry I can't provide further specifics, but here's what I found out about
that particular problem...
This is actually a spyware/malware that is running on the users computer.
I ended up using the "Startup Items" tool in spybot S&D to disable the
.exes from starting up. That solved my problem. As a note, my anti-virus,
Adaware, and Spybot S&B were not able to find it to remove it permanently
from my system.

good luck!
Wade
