MSN Explorer has mutated.

A few weeks ago, ZoneAlarm asked me if I would allow Explorer to access the internet. That was the very first time I had ever gotten that question. I clicked, yes, and every since then I have what looks like a "follow the bouncing" miniature rectangle.

It hasn't really been too troublesome because all I have to do is click enlarge, and I can access what I want. Today, however, five little rectangles appeared all at once, and I Xed them out. Then to my surprise, I got a message from the moderators which said something like:

If you no longer wish to watch this topic, simply click on the line which says "Stop getting updates."

It doesn't help to say no to ZoneAlarm, because I still get those little boxes.

What's causing that, I wonder?
