Pop up tabs

Just a quick question. On one of my systems running win2k sp1 I have the tab that has the save , print , send, and file pictures just hanging around on the top left corner of my desktop. It's the same tab that pops up when you move your mouse over a picture.

It's the same tab that pops up when you move your mouse over a picture. Any idea how to get rid of it. If I move my mouse over the disk image the tab disappears and then returns when i remove the mouse.
 
Thanks in advance

You are using IE6 I assume. This is a feature of IE.
 
You also seem to have active desktop enabled.
 
Go to Internet Options in your Control Panel -> Advanced and turn this off. It's under Browser settings I believe.

Guess what? I tried to do what you said and then restarted and it worked. I guess I didn't restart the other time. Thanks again.
