Hope someone can help.
Just lately, whenever I connect to the Internet, within about 5 minutes, I get a message in the centre of my screen which says "An update for Microsoft Office Starter 2010 - English is now available online. Please remain connected to the internet for the duration of the update .. etc."
I do have Microsoft Officer Starter 2010 on my computer but have never used it and I wonder why it's appearing like this and not through the usual Windows Update alerts? Also, it's just a white box and doesn't look like an official Microsoft update.
Could it be a virus?
Thanks
