Guest computers sometimes unusable - Internet Explorer pop ups

Quick reminder, sometimes the guest computers next to the Ref desk and the Express walk up machines have a problem.  Internet Explorer will spontaneously open new windows over and over very quickly.  The computer isn't usable at that point.

Yesterday I restarted a couple of computers but that didn't fix the problem.  I reported it again to ERIT.  The help ticket was closed with this note:

"This is a known problem that, unfortunately, we have no control over. The only fix is to do a restart. However, when the machine comes back up it may start doing this again. Closing ticket."

So, restart any computer that has this problem.  And if you're not sure whom to report a tech problem to, remember this page: Who You Gonna Call.
