Could be spyware, if you have Windows XP do yourself a favour and download the Microsoft antispyware app. It works and is free.

AMD Athlon 64 3700+&&GeForce FX5200 256Mb&&1GB DDR400 DC&&Seagate 500Gb SATA-300 HDD&&Windows XP Professional X64 Edition&&&&That's right, I'm now using an AMD! I decided to give them another try and they kicked the pants off of my P4 3.4!

Spybot is another freebie that's pretty effective...

It deletes spyware and such, it's WAY better than spybot S&D or adaware.

I see your problem was solved.

Make sure to run the anti-spyware once a week aong with your anti-virus so the problem doesn't resurface.
