Hello, this is my first post here.

I keep getting this popup in a large yellow window - it shows most often when I first get connected to the Internet. (Note: I have both a popup stopper and Ad-Aware, which I currently ran and it got rid of any adware and spyware). This window has no X in the corner to get rid of it, so I have to go to another website in order to not see it. In addition, when I right click "Properties," there is no information available. What is this and how do I get delete it from my computer?

Here'e the exact text that comes up:
