On AOL every time I open a window of any sort, whether to read an email or do antyihg at all a "De-bugger" pops up. "Just in time De-bugging" "possible debuggers: New Instance of Microsoft Script Editor" then it asks "do you want to debug using the selected debugger" -- but if I click yes I end up in this endless loop of nothing that works...so I end up having to click NO at which point I get 3 more debugging windows to which I have to click NO...to make it go away...until I open a nother window and it starts all over agian....HELP??????
 
There's probably a setting in a preference panel to turn off debugging. I don't use AOL, so I can't provide anything more specific than that.

My husband would flat out refuse to use AOL if I ever asked him. I don't know why I would, with high speed internet that we are continuously connected to w/o tying up a phone line...but if I were to ask, it would be a resounding no! :p

Frequently Asked Questions

What does it mean when my computer is constantly popping up debugging windows?

How can I stop the debugging windows from appearing?

Under the 'Startup and Recovery' section, you can uncheck the option that says 'Automatically restart' and adjust the settings for debugging.

What should I do if the debugging windows keep popping up after troubleshooting?

If the debugging windows persist after troubleshooting, consider performing a system restore to revert your computer to a previous state when it was functioning correctly. If that doesn't work, you may need to seek professional help or consider reinstalling the operating system as a last resort.

Could this issue be related to hardware problems?
