Unwanted Search Window

C

Collin

Whenever I run a search out of any web search engine
(Yahoo, Google, Lycos, etc.), I get a new window popping
up for another search engine (search-company.com). I know
it's not a normal pop-up, because it only comes up when I
do a web search, it comes up no matter what search engine
I use, and it comes up in a full Internet Explorer
window. So, I know it's some sort of malicious program
that's been installed on my computer. Anyone know what it
is and how I can get rid of it? Thanks!
