Hi Craig, and welcome:

That was a frequently posted problem a few years ago, and is related to your software. It is a not a virus or spyware problem.

Hi Craig,

Are you facing this problem, after you tried to uninstall Sonic??

Let me know the exact situation.

Regards,

Senthil K

I am having the same problem for months now I have tried everything to fix this but nothing has helped. It is very aggravating.

Hi reeves2009,

 If the information at the following link was not included in "everything" see if it helps:

Otherwise, we cannot help you unless you can tell us what you have tried so far, and give us some information about your operating system and details regarding your use of Sonic software.

I am getting the same problem as the person stated above the Sonic Activation module pops up and yes it started happening after I tried to uninstall Sonic. Can you please help me? Thank you so much I would really appreciate it.

Hi ice-crystal,

This appears to be a common problem, but it does not seem to be malware related. I am going to move this discussion from Virus & Spyware to the Productivity Software Forum where you will receive help.
