This is normally symptomatic of virus infection. Scan with a current
version antivirus (not earlier than 2004) using updated definitions in
Safe Mode. If you do not have an antivirus installed, start by scanning
with Sysclean. There are instructions for that here:

After you have done the initial scan with Sysclean, get a full-featured
av, install it and update it. Then do a thorough scan in Safe Mode. It
would be a good idea to go through the other non-viral malware removal
steps at the site above, too.
