prince,
Thats a new one to me.
First, are you running a software firewall (other than Windows' piece of crap)? Go find ZoneAlarm Free version, download and install it, and then keep a close eye on its icon in the system tray. If it tells you there is inbound or outbound traffic when you know there shouldn't be, you can identify it and, more than likely, stop it.
Second, do a Google search on the Windows command MSCONFIG. Learn to use it as its one of the easiest ways to find stuff running that shouldn't be.
Have you installed any software recently that may be doing that? I tend to doubt that but you have to ask.
Lastly, read this thread and get back to us. Its probably a bit dated but it does have a lot of good info and links.

Good luck.

I highly recommend Comodo Firewall over Zonealarm.
I got sick of having to reboot all the freaking time with Zonealarm and and have since been glad due to Comodo being far superior.

Cobra,
Thanks for the info. I've been getting a bit tired of ZoneAlarm's monthly (or so) updates and have been thinking of changing. I've never heard of Comodo (other than the dragon) so I'll have to check it out.

Don't know what kind of pop-ups, if any, that you get with aim but it could be those annoying ads for animated icons. Some now have sound! I don't remember what website it was but every once in a while I'd hear "Hellooooo" in a flaky female voice. Turned out to be an animated icon. Piece of crap...
OJ,
Had forgotten all about those stupid animated icons and mouse cursors. Yup, those could be the problem.
Boom,
I'd do a Google search on that right away. It must be spreading. I don't use AIM but I think your right that this must be an AIM problem. Your not using any of those animated cursors are you?

No, it went away as soon as I signed out of AIM. I just leave the speakers off. It's some ad thing for smilies that they run. I've seen it on an old torrent...I mean fully legal site that had this stupid ad for smilies. It's not a problem.
Boom,
Well, it sounds as if you've solved that problem. That would be really annoying though.

You really need to read this article in PC World about the The 25 Worst Tech Products of All Time. Guess which company tops the list! What does "AIM" stand for?
It's nothing but a virus that you can't get rid of. My niece uses it and every time I'm on their computer, I disable it. Reboot, and it's back! You can't get rid of that piece of junk!
There are several other IM programs you can run that will connect with that worthless software.

I just went to their site to download it and they JUST released a new version yesterday. So if any of you have it...version 3.0 came out yesterday.
The old 2.4 version was 7.57 MB where the new 3.0 version is 20.0 MB!
Installing now!
Kane,
Well, what do you think of it? I did a little research on it and was not really happy with some of the comments I found. I've downloaded the newest version but am hesitant about installing it. Please let me know what you think.

I'm trying it out and seeing what all it has to offer. Give me a day or so and I'll post what I think on here...

Well it's pretty good. You have to disable little pop ups from coming up in the right bottom task bar that basically says that the firewall is learning...
But yeah...no problems so far...I would say try it out and see what you think yourself. Just remember to disable your Windows firewall. You can have one hardware and one software but no more than one of each.
