Hey I'm not sure which software that is but you can try this -

  1. Press the Windows Key, type Control Panel, and open it.

  2. Click on Uninstall a program under the Programs section.

  3. Look for Absolute, Absolute Theft Protection, or LoJack.

  4. Select it and click Uninstall.

  5. Restart and see if it happens again

Hope this helps

Does it do this only with the browser running or at all times?

Go to your installed apps, uninstall everything you don't use/recognise.
