  1. i have no clue what it is but try getting an anitvirus or a popup blocker. it could stop it from coming up. try avg 8.0


  2. This is some type of browser hijacker. Read the info below, go to the link there is more information.  Good luck.

    "For the benefit of other users who may come upon this problem.

    Today I was surfing around some sites when suddenly I could not access any Multiply users page including my own. All I was getting was a DNS Error page advising that I could not access that page. The adress of this page was "urlseek.vmn.net". I could access nothing.

    Thinking that it must be a Trojan I went next door to my friends house and we googled it which led us to a page where we found that others had suffered this same problem. One piece of advice I found was that resetting page preferences would only remove it temporarily. It went on to say that when a software toolbar had been removed the redirection problem had been removed too.

    So I came back to my computer and removed the Multiply Toolbar which made no difference. The problem remained. I then reset my Mozilla Browser page location to default and the problem disappeared.

    I had been using "igoogle" which has many add ons. Although I am a lehman in such matters I realize now that one of the add ons must have had a problem that snuck onto my browser.

    I will now re install the Multiply Toolbar."

    Classic browser hijacker

  3. I refer you to a previous post on the same subject...seems to be malware downloaded from a toolbar you may have installed:
