New pop up ads

what's with the new pop-up ad that recently started poping up, and keeps
appearing when i sign onto msn and windows live messenger? it's by the
system clock, and keeps telling me about using windows live messenger with
yahoo or something.....how can i make it stop poping up? i already saw it,
and don't want to see it again!

Greetings,

Could you provide a screenshot, I haven't seen this one.

I get it to, and it drives me freaking nuts. just started up about three days
ago. and no one can seem to give me an answer. if you find anything out let
me know. It only comes up in MSN explorer and not IE

I have had the same problem . It is driving me nuts. nobody can give me a
strait answer. if you find out how to stop it let me know. Nothing more
irritating than someone telling you to try something you already have over
and over. started about 3 days ago for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
