I followed the advices in this thread and download spybot.
It asked for $20 before running.
Is spybot a shareware or one must "pay to play"?

Strange...Spybot is shareware....they merely ask for a donation.

Same thing happened to me. I'm usually very careful about that stuff but I think it must've been packaged with a video that someone posted. I noticed that it would reinstall anytime I wanted to run any video. Use both spybot and adaware to remove it. Also removed Windows Media Players and reinstalled it. So far so good.
