Hi:

Your system infected with a trojan or Browse Hijacker
known as "CWS.About:Blank".... Download "CWShredder" to delete it...

Also download "HijackThis" if CWShredder doesn't do the job and to
protect your system download "About:Buster" or "Browser Hijack Blaster"...
to
detect and delete browser hijackers before they install on your system.
Find all here:

Some Facts about CWShredder:
"CWShredder" is a tool that will find and destroy any of about
fifty CoolWebSearch Hijackers which symptoms include

* Redirections to CoolWebSearch related pages
* Redirections when mistyping URLs
* Redirections when visiting Google
* Enormous IE slowdowns when typing
* IE start page/search page changing on reboot
* Sites in the IE Trusted Zone you didn't add
* Popups in Google and Yahoo when searching
* Errors at startup mentioning WIN.INI or IEDLL.EXE
* Unable to access antispyware tools or sites
