How do I stop face book authentication popup?
I constantly get one of 2 pop ups on many web pages. They ask me to log into Facebook. I don't have a Facebook account. I never use this application.
This happens very often.
OS: XP service pack 3
I can supply screen shots. Here is a pretty exact manual copy:
==============================
Authentication Required
? Enter username and password for http://www.facebook.com
User Name: _____________________
Password: _____________________ ____ ________ | OK | | Cancel | |
=================================
These pop ups occur very often. The following programs detect no problems:
Malwarebytes AVG Kapersky anti virus
There are no entries with the word "facebook" in my registry. There are no files with an name like facebook*.* on the disk drive.
