    Default Annoying AOL Popup

    Recently, whenever I open Windows to use my computer, this thing pops up:

    I may or may have updated my AIM, but I don't know why this pops up.

    This doesn't have to do with a spyware does it?

    Those thing already configured itself to load on start-up when you installed those AOL thingy. Sorry cannot help you there, I connect directly to the internet via the router using only the username and password given by the ISP.

    I never use AOL before, well AOL isn't available at my location. I never use or installed the ISP's software and use it to connect to the internet.

    When I joined AOL I used to get that thing popping up on my laptop. You can stop it appearing but I don't think you can remove it without reinstalling Windows. It is such an annoyance.
    Have you learned to love one another?

    I think I solved the problem by uninstalling all those AOL crap. I was going to uninstall AIM, if it persists.
