It sounds as thought there may be some processes or programs running in the background. You can go online and download ad-aware, run that and see if it finds any spyware or other programs. Have it delete those files and see if this still persists.

You need to close some programs, or stop the automatic scan which might be running in the background.

Your system is too busy to handle anything new. It is asking you to wait before clicking on anything else.
