Bought a new laptop before coming to Korea last month. Everything seemed fine and we started using it when we got here.

Now, I keep getting weird messages on the screen that interrupt what I'm working on. It says that the computer was unable to install the application. What application?

Well, when I click on "cancel," it shows a winRAR archive that was trying to unzip and install files. I checked my temporary folder and found it is full of weird files and I don't know what they do.

How can I get this thing purged from my computer? It tries to install as soon as I boot the computer and it continues thereafter.
