Re:

Did you download some program that added coupons for you whether you want them or not?

Re:
Wasn't me! It was FireFox update that did it and the extension would not go away even when I told FireFox to remove it. I ended up having to remove FireFox itself then running a bootscan cleaner to get rid of it.

Re:
I think what caused it is the ICQ chat which I have so when things get synced the ICQ toolbar shows up and that lets some other things show up that I don't want...

Re: February 2013 Chat
GOOD MONDAY MY FRIENDS!
Had a nice weekend, even though the weather did not cooperate! Totally socked in with DENSE FOG....but Saturday, we went out to Breakfast with Mom and Dad, then drove to Boise to pick up a new chandelier and two matching kitchen lighting fixtures. And we got those installed (ended up having to do one of the smaller ones on Sunday)....then on Sunday had Mom and Dad over to watch, first the "Puppy bowl"....then the Superbowl. We were not rooting for either team, just the score....hubby was entered in the company's football pool. We lost..LOL But the game was close, and several of the commercials (really why we watch) were awesome. The Budweiser Clydesdale one with the horse remembering his former owner made me cry, as did the "Dodge" commercial about "farmers".....geez, those were good. All in all good food, good wine and even apple pie. Enjoyable day. Hope you all had a great weekend. Today not much, catch up on laundry.
PASTOR...
Definitely annoying! Did you get it cleaned out?

Re:
I think so... I have been re-installing and updating anything that might have been affected and today it seems better. The system started working much better after I got rid of the iTunes proggy that somehow inserted itself into the start menu (I never use iTunes).
There is still something causing a major slowdown on the first browser page opened up that I have not found yet but the culprits hiding places are dwindling down fast. 
The bad part is how it is affecting my work duties and playtime on Runboard... I really cannot afford the time it is taking just to get started but I have cut that nonsense to 15 minutes now (it was over an hour when I started)... maybe soon I will discover the hidden culprit and then it will be ejected into the ether where it belongs...
