You have a "home page hijacker" of some sort installed on your

Go to MVP Jim Eshelman's free online spyware test web page at
http://aumha.org/a/noads.htm and see what it detects. Follow the
advice on that page to clean it up, or use Jim's Quick Fix procedure
at http://www.aumha.org/a/quickfix.htm

Good luck
