You have spyware on your system. Remove spyware with Spybot Search &
Destroy from www.safer-networking.org and Ad-aware from
www.lavasoftusa.com. Be sure to update these programs before running
them. These programs are free, so run them both since they complement
each other. It is best to run antivirus and spyware removal tools in
Safe Mode. You may also need to run CWShredder from
http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/index.html . Please read the
instructions carefully. A great resource for dealing with spyware is
http://www.spywareinfo.com. Also, make sure you've visited Windows
Update and applied all security patches. Make sure you are running a
firewall and a current antivirus with updated virus definitions.
