    A small window opens and closes at big speed on the task bar, and I have not time to see to what application it belongs. It is very annoying . I have already executed the antivirus but it is still equal.

    Hi, naconfer. Belated welcome to Windows BBS! :)

    Have you noticed any pattern about when the window shows up?

    If the window consistently shows up during startup, you might be able to figure out what program causes the window during startup by using the handy Mike Lin's Startup Control Panel.

    I would use that utility to disable suspected startups, one at a time, and then restart your computer each time to see if/when that window stops showing up.

    Please keep us posted on what you find.

    Good luck!

    Hello naconfer,

    Does this happen when you're connected to the web only or does it happen when not connected as well?

    One of the possibilities is an error report being sent to your ISP or Microsoft.

    Wish I could tell you how to slow it down.

    Regards - Charles
