Sounds suss.
Trojan or virus, scan for viruses and check with something like adaware.

I posted about this a while back, it seems to be one of the sponsor banners loading and whilst others have suggested use a different browsert, its not always possible. Martin could we check this please

Those that see the pop-up, what OS are you using, and what browser?

Just to confirm this is definately the Stratstones Banner in the site header causing the pop-up... But only at work for me (Windows 7 Enterprise / IE9). Cycling through the banners using F5 brings up the log-in pop-up every time the SS Banner pops. Adobe Flashruntime is trying to do something locally and the network is requesting Admin login. Can't screen shot as it takes control of the computer until No is selected.
Hope this helps, let me know if you want me to test anything.

OK thanks guys, this appears to be Adobe popping up every time a Flash banner (an Adobe format) is shown on the site.
I have absolutely no idea where to start in advising you how to stop Adobe interfering in this manner, particularly on a locked-down corporate machine.
I will therefore be working with the sponsors to phase out Flash banners over the forthcoming weeks.06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti
