That’s odd. It’s my first time to hear of an internet file that pops up whenever a user logs in to his computer. What I had in mind about the “internet file” you are saying is an HTML file. But with all the programs I used even before I haven’t had one that installs a file that makes it to pop up every time a user logs in. It’s possible that your computer is infected by an adware. The very first time I encounter an adware infecting a computer was when I was still studying and it was with my classmate’s computer at home.
It’s really the same with a regular virus; it also affects almost all applications installed on the computer. Whenever a user tries to open a program, a dialog box will always pop up showing something which when you click will open the web browser and will bring you to some website. Since you’re not sure if your computer is infected with an adware, scan your machine with your antivirus. Run a full system scan.
If it didn’t find anything on your computer, check if there is a file inserted in the Startup of Windows. Click Start, All Programs, and then point to Startup. Check if your internet file is loaded in there then simply delete it by right-clicking on it then selecting Delete.

I think Techyv.com is the greatest way of learning the latest security updates. According to this series, I have come to know about Adware. I want to give all of its credit to Sharath Reddy. He helped me to understand the importance of Adware. I was also attacked by an adware. I couldn’t find a solution to stop it. Then I have found my answer from Sharath. Here, he explains everything clearly about adware and also nicely informed how to stop it. I really love Sharath Reddy’s comment because he gives more solutions on how to get rid of this problem. Because of him, I gained more knowledge about Adware. In association with you, I have solved this issue. I am greatly thankful to you. You have made me liberated from all cares and anxieties.
