Mystery Box

by xjmpr Feb 25, 2008 6:44PM PST

For the last month or so, There has been a strange and distinct outline of a box that appears on my Yahoo front page.It starts just above the yahoo search box and continues to the bottom and through the middle of the page. I cannot connect to any of the links that are surrounded by that box,including my sign in and mail. It appears on IE7 but not on my Firefox Browser.Can anybody explain this strange box? My pc is a Northgate Innovations LP with a 250GB hard drive. An AMD Athlon XP 2500 1.8 proc. and 1.2GB's of Ram. I'm concerned about my security. Thanks
