MicroBell: I'm heading out of town on business, let's use the time to think. From DOS I did an ATTRIB -h *.*/s to unhide anything. ATTRIB did list some files that it couldn't -h because they were +s system files. None of the system files matched the filenames in the ContextPlus removal link I posted earlier. I then did a DIR /S for those files and came up empty. I also looked for $SYS$ files since somebody exploited the Sony rootkit malware. Again, no hits.

How can I take advantage of two systems, one that has popups and one that doesn't?

I'll check in probably on Wednesday but no promises.
Best Regards,
Lou
