sounds like you have a virus

and

spyware

i'd run the normal spyware programs and an antivirus program to see if that helps and if that doesn't help i'd re-install the operating system

Your operating system is what runs your computer - windows x/p or windows 2000 based on the age of your pc

spyware and viruses ' will cause the problem you are having

download & install avg free edition

and then download and install and then click update

ad-aware free

Run Clean up every week! Just like religion this should be done at least once a week to keep your PC healthy.

As Bass said avg free is really good (doesn't use a lot of resources). And I would recommend MS Defender.

Its a good anti spy-ware program for novice users. I find that the others are just too confusing for some people to setup.
Piavag - I really like that program you linked. I usually do it manually.
