Keep getting a login box popping up asking me to signin to me.com. wont go away so I have to kill the firefox process and work my way back to where I was. How to I get rid of this annoyance? Is this a virus? Something I can remove or uninstall? Can I sue? Lost a lot of time and information.

MobileMe automatically pushes new email, contacts, and calendar events to your iPhone, Mac, and PC. Seems related to Apple Software

Thanks for the URL to the Wiki. It looks like I can sue Phil Schiller. I have a PC with Win7 not a MAC. I dont have Itunes. I have Adobe pdf software. Never downloaded the Itunes. Have Quicktime. Not interested in logging in to me.com I don't think SSL works that well or I would just sign up for an account and get it over with. But this could be a virus. Could be phishing. I have been having problems with Firefox and Windows 7 for mail and slow response to web sites that I didn't have with Vista. Now I use Opera a lot, but I like Firefox and used to think it was a safer browser than IE etc. When the logon box comes up I cant get rid of it without starting task manager and killing Firefox. I don't get the message with Opera or IE. Been trying to get rid of the dot net code. Cant remove it out of IE but I renamed the folder. Its gone out of Firefox. For the time being.

I don't know. Some things you could try, Empty Cookies, History files, even could try just reinstalling Firefox.

Good idea about the reinstall. I use Ccleaner and have Firefox setup to dump files when closing. I have a firewall on my router and another hardware firewall and a software firewall but this log on comes through at will. You say it is push technology I guess coming through http port. Cant turn that off. The annoyance is that I could be writing something online a few paragraphs long and it locks up everything so I have to stop and close firefox losing what I have written. I followed your advice on getting rid of the dotnet framework and havent seen the logon box lately.
