It means you have infected your PC with malaware
Download and run MS Defender, SpyBot & Adaware, all free.
Update their diffinitions and run all three.
Hopefully you have a decent Anti Virus application, you might be better off
with a decent Internet Security Suite

Below is a list of programs to remove Viruses and Spyware.
It sounds like your comp is infected.

http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPOR...005033108162039

Above is the link for Norton Removal Tool; if using Norton.

http://www.avast.com/eng/download-avast-home.html

Above is a link to Avast Free 4 Home Anti-Virus
It is low resource using, free and Vista 32bit and 64bit compatible.

http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html

For Spyware removal, use the above link to “Spybot Search & Destroy 1.5.2”
Download it, install it, update it, immunize your system and scan your
System with it.

For a non-scanning, but running in the background, Program to STOP Spyware
being downloaded to your Computer, use SpywareBlaster 4, available at the
above link.
