My guess would be that you have picked up some adware that tries to launch and pop-up blocker is just doing its job.

Try running ad-aware

Exactly. It happens to me on occasion when someone is trying to IM me. My computer is just doing it's job to ward off the unwanted adware.

OK, so I guess it could be someone IMing me.
LMAO
It happened when some posts were getting a little heated,,,
Might have been a blessing,,,
I'll check it out next time.

As for setting it to block the IMs, I think you'd have to go to the settings,,, go to
Internet options
Privacy tab
down at bottom (IE6 or later I think)
click the box at the bottom for Pop Ups

Thanks

You must have a different IM setup then..because it always gives me the option to accept or decline.
