Cache Clenear error occasionally popping up
I have: |Win XP |Office 2003 |AOL |asstd. other programs
The computer is one of three in the office - all showing same error. The pop-up is quite random as to when it pop-ups so I can't blame any one program.
The error reads like this: <TITLE> Cache Cleaner | Cache Cleaner has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
It then starts all the 'Send Error Report' / 'Don't Send' Microsoft jiberish.
What is interesting is the pop-up shows a barcord type image in the top right of the pop-up windows, just below the title bar in the same line with the sentence I mentioned above ("Cache Cleaner has encountered....etc.).
Please help.

It sounds to me like you have a spyware infection. I would go to www.lavasoftusa.com and download adaware se personal, run a scan on that computer and see if it finds anything.
I am with lukeca. If there are any graphical differences in your "Has encountered a problem and needs to close" windows and the window in the link othere than the obvious Xp Style / Standard style windows differences then it is probably a clever Ruse.

it could be an addon of internet explorer.
Assuming tha you have windows xp sp2. from an internet explorer go to tools -> manage addons. uninstall or disable anything suspicious.
