Hi Waunakeeno,
Thank you for posting on the forums.
You could very well have a 3 party program loading up in the background that’s causing this error.
Let's try clean booting the system to remove 3rd party software and see if that clears up the problem.
Follow the steps below to place your computer in “clean boot”
·Click the Start orb on your Desktop
·Type msconfig in the Start Search box, and then press ENTER.
If you are prompted for an administrator password or for a confirmation, type the password, or click Continue.
·On the General tab, click Selective Startup.
·Under Selective Startup, click to clear the Load Startup Items check box.
·Click the Services tab, click to select the Hide All Microsoft Services check box, and then click Disable All.
·Click OK.
When you are prompted, click Restart.Did you get the same error message?
If this does resolve the issue, then see the following Microsoft Article on “Clean boot” and the section “How to determine what is causing the problem” to determine which program or service maybe causing the issue.

Thanks for the answer (I have difficulties getting back to my support questions because of complicated or non intuitive website layout, that's why I've been long before reacting).
I hoped for an explanation of what was happening, since the message clearly talks of a Windows process.
The exact and complete error message is as above, but in Swedish, with the alternative 'Microsoft Windows Based Script Host' prechosen. The other alternatives are a range of applications like NotePad, Nero Essentials and what not, that I have installed.
Now I have followed the instructions concerning clean install. For about ten minutes the pop up hasn't materialized. However I don't have a clue as to which application might have been the culplrit. Should I go through the cumbersome task of activating one startup process on at a time to find out which one that caused my problem? You haven't said anything about 'what next'.

Or should I keep the start up processes unactivated from now on?
I have gotten rid of a couple of Apple addons that I don't remember ever installing, and for a while I have had their music application iTunes proposing updates. I uninstalled that one, but that did not help the pop up issue. Did they come with some 'free' addon?
