This symptom is caused by Viruses. It is advisable to run a full system scan. Be sure you update the anti-virus software definitions.

On the Symantec site there are two scans you can do both
free, one scans your system online for viruses and then
gives advice on the results and they can scan your
connection for security against hackers etc and again
gives advice on results.
