I have WindowsXP pro.

When the computer in cold booted I get a
repetitive popup telling me of a "New
Instance of Microsoft Script Editor" with the
option to "Do You Want to Debug using the
Selected Debugger?" When I cancel this it
keeps popping up for three times.

This problem occurred all at once.

Please help, Frank.

Only download software you can validate as uncompromised - in the case
of non-vendor site you have no guarantee that the files are unmodified
or uncompromised. Anyone providing a link to a non-vendors site with a
direct download should not be trusted, the vendors sites are the safest
place to download their application.

No person of sound mind would download files from a hack site that
requires a password to access the unknown files when they are available
directly from the vendors.

Always remember - only download files from Trusted Sites.

The following links will take you to vendors sites for Spy Ware / Ad
ware removal tools and also for Antivirus tools. After you install any
of these applications and update them, run them in SAFE MODE to allow
them to properly clean your system.

First, make sure that your Java is updated to the latest version:

These sites are for downloading Anti-Malware and Anti-Spyware tools, in
order that I would use them myself:

Dave Lipman's tools:
Download MULTI_AV.EXE from the URL --
http://www.pctipp.ch/downloads/dl/35905.asp

MalwareBytes Anti-Malware
From http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/
http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/malwarebytes/mbam-setup.exe

AdAwareSE can be found here:
http://www.lavasoft.com/products/ad_aware_free.php

SpyBot Search and Destroy can be found here:
http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html

SmitRem.exe by Noahdfear's SmitFraud, SpyAxe, SpyFalcon, removal tool
http://noahdfear.geekstogo.com/click%20counter/click.php?id=1

IEFix Utility - Description:

What MS Office do you have ?
Is it Office 2007 with InfoPath ?
