Do a Google search ad get the free version of Ad-Aware, and Spybot
Search&Destroy. After you find and install the programs, do a "check for
updates" on both of them before you run them. You will not believe what you
will find...

The problem may be due to a spyware.

Download Ad-Aware from www.lavasoftusa.com, scan the system and eliminate
the malware products. Re-apply the above fix if necessary.
** Remember to update the pattern file using WebUpdate in Ad-Aware **

( Caused by a malware called CoolWebSearch) Also, Download:
