That is called spyware, get a spyware scan going and you can go to the run box, type msconfig, then go to the startup tab and uncheck all the things that U do not need running all the time..

yep sounds like a browser hijacker. get hold of adaware se (http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/), M$ spyware (http://www.microsoft.com/athome/secu...e/default.mspx) update and run full scans, allow it to remove anything it finds. keep running until they return a zero infection rate.

Send a message via MSN to doctorgonzo
I'd also get Spybody: Search and Destroy (http://www.safer-networking.org). Run all of these anti-spyware programs. If you still have problems, you may need some targeted help.

don't forget hijackthis, the best one out there. And be sure to download the Winsock LSP fix in case you remove spyware that has altered your IP stack or you will loose your internet connection.
