To be honest I got no idea what to think of it...
Why can't you take a screenshot of it?

Anyway, when did it come up? After you installed something?
Does it actually do something usefull?
Try running ad-aware or spybot to see if it's spyware.

Hi Harro and Miko!

It looks just like the "Menu" that displays when you click on
My Computer, which gives you the choices of:

System Tasks

Other Places

Details

What do you all use for screenshots besides Paint?

Also...am trying to edit my signature for the Forum and can't seem to find where to do it!...
I must be having a bad month all around!!! LOL

Hi Miko!

Can't click on it...can't do anything with it!  It just sits there taking up space!  Ugh! 

Thanks for the heads-up re finding the sig.  Went right to it!
(Funny how I missed that after going over all the options
HOW MANY times! Jeez!)

Getting back to the "unwanted menu"...I am thinking maybe it took the place of the "My Documents shortcut"...since IT is not there anymore...and this huge "menu" thing ABOUT My Documents IS!
(the "Details" gives details about the shortcuts.)

Is that possible?  (You know I am "techno-challenged".)

Could it be a function of the shortcut?

Thanks Miko!

Let me ask you which operating system you are using? This could give us all a better idea of how to handle the problem. Also, if you have any virus scanners, spyware detectors or anything like that, I suggest running them immediatley and if you don't you need to get some, I have noticed when you have a file that wont allow you to do anything to it, it is sometimes a virus or spyware linked to another program of some sort.

When you run these scans, you will need to disconnct your computer from the net, if you are using DSL or Cable just turn off your modem and disconnet the USB or Ethernet cable from the computer. If you are using a phone line, just disconnect it from the computer.

I had a problem like this on a friends computer that I had to get rid of for him and it turned out to be spyware. So, try all this. Also, you should check to see if some of the following works properly.

Mediaplayer (Or what ever you are using to play music.)
Internet Explorer, Firefox, sufari etc.

I only say that becuase sometimes spyware of even viruses will imbed themselves in those files to remain hidden and create things that should not be there.
