Stop guessing what it might be.

Perform some scans for malicious software, then fix any remaining
issues:

Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware
detection programs:

Malwarebytes (MBAM): http://malwarebytes.org/
SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/

They can be uninstalled later if desired.

Reading your post and I think you have what is called "rogue anti-virus"
software - which isn't anti-virus software at all - it itself is the
malware! They are trying to get you to buy their "full" program in order to
remove what they themselves have put there. Instead use known good software
such as Malwarebytes to remove this cr*p from your PC.

One thing you should do is have a good look at the thing and do a bit of
research first using the search engines. Do not use any removal tools that
are not 'known good' or that ask for money as you might just be digging
yourself deeper into the rogue's doo doo.

Ideally, you would have a full system image you could just reapply - so your
PC is back like new - apps - settings - 'n all - and a current backup of
more recent data which you could then just import. You could be back running
as if it never happened in under an hour. Look into "system image" and
"backup" and consider a back up and recovery strategy that doesn't involve
reinstalling everything all over. Windows 7, BTW, has wonderful backup
utilities built right in - you might consider moving to a PC running Windows
7 just for that.

You are seeing the effects of an already-present hijackware infection!

NB: If you had no anti-virus application installed or the subscription had
expired *when the machine first got infected* and/or your subscription has
since expired and/or the machine's not been kept fully-patched at Windows
Update, don't waste your time with any of the below: Format & reinstall
Windows. A Repair Install will NOT help!

Microsoft PCSafety provides home users (only) with no-charge support in
dealing with malware infections such as viruses, spyware (including unwanted
software), and adware.
https://support.microsoft.com/oas/de...prid=7552&st=1

Also available via the Consumer Security Support home page:
https://consumersecuritysupport.microsoft.com/

Otherwise...

1. See if you can download/run the MSRT manually:
http://www.microsoft.com/security/ma...e/default.mspx

NB: Run the FULL scan, not the QUICK scan! You may need to download the
MSRT on a non-infected machine, then transfer MRT.EXE to the infected
machine and rename it to SCAN.EXE before running it.

2a. WinXP => Run the Windows Live Safety Center's 'Protection' scan (only!)
in Safe Mode with Networking, if need be:
http://onecare.live.com/site/en-us/center/howsafe.htm

2b. Vista or Win7=> Run this scan instead:
http://onecare.live.com/site/en-us/center/whatsnew.htm

3. Now run a thorough check for hijackware, including posting requested logs
in an appropriate forum, not here. DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP!!

• http://inetexplorer.mvps.org/tshoot.html

http://aumha.net/viewforum.php?f=30 or other appropriate forums.**

If these procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting
this isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a local, reputable and
independent (i.e., not BigBoxStoreUSA or Geek Squad) computer repair shop.

Thank you all for the responses. I had CA security suite installed which has
not detected this problem. what I find strange is that I can log on as
another user and the computer seems to be fine. I have contacted CA and they
are going to try to resolve this problem. they issued me a case number and
will have their "infectious malware/spyware professionals" contact me.
