quick install? Windows XP question please.

[George Orwell]

Hi, When I go to some web sites, then this program pops up on my screen, that is a little box that says, "quick install", then it wont install and I have to click it off to make it go away. I cant find what it is. I scanned my computer for virus, No virus,
No spyware either, I scanned. It just says, "quick install". I cant find anything on google about it. I looked in the task manager to see what the file name is and I cant find it on my computer, I did a search for it and nothing is there. I forgot the fil
e name already. Something like. Syncor.exe or something like that. Any help here?

Next time you see this little box, right-click and look at it's properties.

The hits that show up after a search on Google for "syncor.exe" all point
to an audio driver. I can't imagine why some websites are triggering a
request for this to be installed. May want to to spend some time at the
online support area for your sound hardware to see if you can dig up an
explanation there.
