Unknown Program/Application Startup

After a recent death of my old machine I have upgraded to a new machine.
During the process of transferring, somehow I have ended up with a 'box' in
the upper left corner with "cancel" in it. It cannot be moved or deleted and
does nothing that I can see when it is 'clicked' on. Additionally there is a
task in the taskbar, that has the word "ZIP" (in red) and under it a blue
paperclip (on it's side). If you mouseover the taskbar item an "icon" comes
up with the word "Cancel" in it. Clicking on the taskbar item seems to have
no effect, except for closing the icon.

I have no idea where this came from, as it was not being displayed on the
old platform. I've run all items I can think of to discover what
application/process is spawning this, but cannot find anything. I see nothing
strange in the startup....

Any help in discovering how to rid myself of this pest will be appreciated...
