Most of the time it pops up(slides up behind the task bar into place right above the date and time) it asks me to update VLC player, with a few times where it asked me to update Libre office, I have the option to don't show again or to update, but I usually click the little X at the top right corner of the box to get rid of it, so this time I finally clicked update and it disappeared and a red norton warning popped up, AdWare.Eorezo blocked, computer is safe, have done a full system scan plus power eraser and have found nothing and box still pops
 
Finally found out what the box is, didn't know it but when I installed Alcohol 52% it automatically installed Smart File Advisor. Just used Revo Uninstaller, and uninstalled both Alcohol 52% and Smart File Advisor and the blue box is no longer appearing.
