apparently that's a symptom of a virus. see:

first scan your pc (all of these are free):
Run CCleaner first (just run it with the default settings). You'll get a better idea what infections you have when running anti-spyware scans. http://www.ccleaner.com/
Spybot: http://www.spybot.info/en/index.html...
After updating switch to advanced mode, to do so select “mode” from the toolbar and check “Advanced Mode”, it will ask if you want to switch modes, say “yes”. Now you have multiple tabs on the left of the screen, select the “tools” tab and click on the “IE Tweaks” icon. Make sure that you check “Lock Hosts file read-only as protection against hijackers”. After its updated select the “Immunize” icon, click on the green + to immunize your system. This will help prevent any new spyware/malware infestation by blocking new items. THIS MUST BE REDONE AFTER EVERY UPDATE SO THAT YOU ARE PROTECTED AGAINST THE LATEST THREATS.
Also scan with Ad-Aware: http://www.lavasoftusa.com/products/ad_a...
AVG Anit-spyware: http://free.grisoft.com/freeweb.php/doc/...
Also, Javacool Software's SpywareBlaster for resident protection: http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareb...
You can get BitDefender8 as an on-demand virus scanner:

You don't want to run two resident anti-virus programs but using one as an on-demand scanner is fine.
