Hi,
Spyware, or other such programs can cause problems like the one you are
experiencing.
You would be best served by downloading utilities to remove this programs.
With the programs gone, you should be able to use your computer as normal.
AdAware is a good place to start, it will automatically detect and remove
all the spyware programs it detects, and is user friendly. You can download
AdAware from:
http://www.lavasoftusa.com/support/download/
Once you download and install the program, *_ensure that you have updated it
with the latest definition_*. This will ensure that you will be protected
against the latest versions of such programs.
To ensure removal of other maladies that AdAware may have missed, download
CWShredder. You can think of this as a companion to AdAware, and it should catch
some varients that AdAware missed. Download CWShredder here:
