Have you recently installed new software? Looks like its an active application, try to right click on it and see if there is an exit or help menu

go in to control panel > add or remove programs >
then look for ****bar or something. Often these programs are hiding some spyware. Maybe try downloading an anti spyware program. It might solve it |
