Hi Lorne :-)

Try the following and see if it helps:

This is usually caused by third-party browser add-ons. If you have any 3rd
party toolbars such as Google, MSN or Yahoo, disable them. If you have
Yahoo Companion, uninstall it. If you have any 3rd party software, popup or
ad blockers, disable them.

Additional possibilities:

Clear the Temporary Internet Files and delete Cookies.

If still no joy, then do the following:

Dealing with Unwanted Spyware and Parasites:
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/unwanted.htm
Be aware, your Anti-Virus won't detect all types of warez, Trojans, malware,
worms, etc., and neither can other adware or spyware related programs such
as AdAware and SpyBot. They don't have the proper definitions. They must
also be run in Safe Mode with Hidden Files enabled in order to fully scan
all files. Even if you have run such programs and nothing shows up, it does
not mean your system is clean. It takes a series of programs to fully clean
your machine. *Some very aggressive and damaging variants of malware can
replicate themselves repeatedly, or mutate, if not removed properly.*

Download and install HiJackThis. This is one of the most important steps.
Follow all instructions carefully. This program should be run in Normal
mode.
